Using Smartsheet for Secret Santa
Hello,
This holiday season I thought what could be better than using SmartSheet for Secret Santa at the office. I was curious if there was a way to randomize names to determine who gets who? or any other fun ideas I could incorporate.
Thank you
Here is what I'm already doing
-Reminder automation emails with fun little Christmas sayings and such throughout the month
-Individuals fill out a form with items that you would like for secret santa
-Automation email is sent to the secret santa with information from the form so they know items to get them

I don't think smartsheet can randomly pair people together. I mean, perhaps with some crazy math and formula magic its possible, but it might be easier to do a random generator.
This one provides you with the lists:

This one does all the work on the backend and generates lists and emails people reminders for you.
