Permissions - Workspaces vs Folders vs Sheets

Andrea Westrich

We have workspaces for each of our projects. Within that project, there might be a folder section for accounting, project management, units, marketing, sales, etc. Certain people need permission to the entire workspace, easy! But others may need admin permission to a folder or sheet, but should not see another folder.

An example is the Sales team needs admin rights to the sales folder, but should only have view rights to the unit folder and not even see the accounting folder.

Is this possible? Why does this appear to be all or nothing?

Thanks

Hi @Andrea Westrich

I hope you're well and safe!

Unfortunately, it's not possible now, but it's an excellent idea!

Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.

Here's a possible workaround or workarounds

• Have you explored the Premium app, WorkApps?

WorkApps

https://www.smartsheet.com/platform/workapps

Achieve more, faster by building easy-to-navigate apps using your sheets, forms, dashboards, and more — with WorkApps.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!

Hello @Andrée Starå. Thank you for your response and the information. I'll dig into Workapps, but I believe that is an extra cost, something we are not prepared to do at this time.

Thank you for your informative reply!
