Release 2016-08-06 Comments feature doc misleading
The new functionality doc:
http://help.smartsheet.com/articles/521892-adding-discussions
says this
Other actions with comments require additional permissions:
- To edit a comment, you must be the author of the comment.
- To delete a comment, you must be the author of the comment.
Neither of these appear to be true because the very next statement is:
Note that the sheet Owner or anyone with Admin permissions to the sheet can delete any comment or comment thread.
Correction:
Testing confirms that an Admin can edit/delete any comment or thread.
To edit or delete a comment, you must be the author, owner of the sheet, or have Admin privileges.
Testing confirms that an Admin can delete any comment or thread.
To delete a comment, you must be the author, owner of the sheet, or have Admin privileges.
I thought I was able edit comments with Admin/Owner users but can not reproduce again.
