Can I create a contact group of non-Smartsheet users for a distro list?

Hi,

I'm looking to set up a contact group for an event sign-up sheet, but the audience is mostly non-Smartsheet account/license holders. I'm working on bulk uploading the list as a .csv file and developing the group now, but I'm wondering if everyone on the list will require a license to be able to access it and enter their information.

Can I use Smartsheet to send out the sign-up sheet if the recipients do not have Smartsheet accounts or licenses?

Thanks!

    You can create a form and email the link to everyone in the group. Anyone can complete a form so you don't need to worry about licenses etc.

  • Ok, thanks Meg. I sent a form to a co-worker without a license and it directed her to the log-in landing page.

    Is emailing the link vs. sharing the form the way to go here?

    Hi @Matt Morrison

    I hope you're well and safe!

    Ensure that the form isn't set, so the submitters have to be logged in to Smartsheet to see it.

    Did that work/help?

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

    Best,
