Is there a way to have an email address in a smartsheet cell be clickable to where it would open an outlook message?
Do you know if there is a way to do this? I need this!
If you are able to make their email a hyperlinked text field then you could use the mailto protocol to open in outlook.
<a href="mailto:ryan@dynamicduo.io">ryan@dynamicduo.io</a>
You could use some simple string concatenating to format the link.
Does this work for you?

Hi Allison,
Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment because the URL has to start with www or https , but it's an excellent idea!

You could also send the email from Smartsheet. Is that an option?

I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Is it possible for dropdowns to filter by value? For example, my dropdown options are: Solar Battery, Winter Battery, PV Panels, PV Interconnections. If I type into a cell that uses this dropdown and enter “Battery,” none of the battery options appear. But if I type “PV,” then both “PV Panels” and “PV Interconnections”…
There are several instances when I make a new column in a sheet and want to add the description. The current set up is two different functions. Can the "Add Column Description" be added to this prompt box? I use several column formulas and automated columns that are also locked. In order to "Add Column Description", I have…
