Copy and paste a row of information from smartsheets to an email

Zac Baker

is there a way to copy a row of information and paste it in an email to send to someone rather than having to retype the information in the email? Smartsheet doesn't seem to want to play along lol. for instance

Example I cant copy and paste the row in question in this email so you know what I'm referring to 😯.

If you right-click the row and then select Send you can customize who you want to send it to and what the message says. But when it sends the email, it sends the message you typed plus the row information in an easy-to-read format.

Thanks David.

No problem.

Is it possible to just copy 2 or 3 cells alone and share it, as we do in Excel sheet? Always, I need to send the entire row via right click -> send. Also, it limits me in to smartsheet restricted email note. I would like to copy paste the sheet content and call-out few stuffs on email.

Can that be enabled please?

Hi @Siva Ganesan

Have you explored using the Placeholder feature?

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!
