Viewer can Save as New?!

Vivien Chong

I noticed that if I share some Smartsheet items to a person as a Viewer, they are able to Save the entire item as new if they are a Licensed User. How can we ensure that the data is meant only for viewing purpose?

Hi @Vivien Chong 

Hope you are fine, you can do that by publishing your sheet or report as Read Only and share the link only.

Please read the following article it will help you to understand the sharing permission levels

@Bassam.M Khalil that means we are unable to share an entire workspace as a viewer, but will have to individually publish and share the link for each to view only?

That's Correct "we are unable to share an entire workspace as a viewer, but will have to individually publish and share the link for each to view only?"
