Is there a way to add a contact group to the dropdown list in a contact list column?
Not unless your contact group has its own email address as is the case in many google products. Smartsheets itself currently only allows one email per contact column. Groups is not currently an option from within smartsheets.
But it should be. Please submit an Enhancement Request:

I agree - it should be! I can import a contact group and name it but I can't load that same group into the contact column - are you kidding? Seems like an easy win...
I've submitted an enhancement request as well. This will be a critical part during our evaluation to continue to use Smartsheet as it has made the management of our sheets untenable with a team of 100+.
was this ever resolved? I am looking to have a drop down contact list in a form as well.
Hi @Thomas Hoag,
It’s possible to have a contact list, but not groups.
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!

Added my enhancement request for this option. Would resolve a lot of issues when selecting contacts on forms and sheets, including maintenance of the lists.
New to Smartsheets and struggling with this same challenge. Is there a solution to this now that did not appear to exist a couple years ago when this conversation took place?
I'm receiving this message every time I try to open my sheets. I'm the only admin user. I have already performed proper troubleshooting, such as clearing the cache, logging in incognito, and logging out and back in, but the issue remains unresolved. It's been a few days, and I'm unable to track our projects and this…
I’ve created an automation that generates a document and forwards it to the individual specified in a cell. The line item also has several additional attachments associated with it. Is there a way to include those attachments with the generated document?
I have an automation set up that copies a row to another sheet each day. The automation itself works correctly, but the problem is that it copies the formulas rather than the values, which causes the formulas to break and return errors. How can I configure it to copy only the values instead of the formulas?
