I would like to have the search option in a published sheet. Is this possible? My sheet has many categories with the option to expand under each, for a specific subject. It would be nice to have a search option available, as it is in the original sheet for the ease of finding information.

Hi Elizabeth,
Yes, it is.
You’d use a keyboard shortcut for it.
Mac = CMD+F
Win = CTRL+F (I think)
Would that work?
I hope that helps!
Have a fantastic week!

In a published sheet I usually press "ctrl" "F" and it pops up. Is it a sheet or dashboard?

Thank you both. I get so caught up with the great functionalities of Smartsheet, I didn't even think about the basic functions. Ugh, well I feel sheepish, thanks! :)

Control F doesn't work for our published sheet. How do we enable search functions for published dashboards?

I have a similar issue. I have a published Dashboard where Ctrl + F isn't working. It worked prior to publishing but once I published it, nobody was able to search. Any suggestions?
