Solicit Comments, but prevent user from viewing other's comments

Hello All,

We use comments pretty extensively to communicate updates and share "next step" info internally. I would like to request updates, and include comments to external collaborators, but prevent them from seeing what has been previously posted. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,

Alex

Hi Alex,

We don't currently have the functionality of sending update requests that allow for comments but hide the previous comments made. When you have a moment, please submit a Product Enhancement Request. Thank you!

Hi Alex,

A possible workaround could be to use a specific column(s) for the external collaborators where they can see and add comments.

Would that work?

Hope that helps!

Have a fantastic week!

Why are my answers not showing up when a document is generated?
I have my Smartsheet set to generate a document when a form is filled out. The document is a fillable PDF and when the document generates not all of the answers populate on the generated PDF.
