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!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment

You could also send the email from Smartsheet. Is that an option?
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!
Best,

Let me know if you find a way by not using a URL shortener service.
I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
