Contact List Functionality in Forms
I've noticed this request a few times over the years, but still don't see that Smartsheet has addressed this. When using sheets, the "Contact List" column works wonderfully and will populate any user within our Smartsheet account when you begin typing a name. However, when attempting to use this within a form, it DOES NOT…

Auto populate a contact cell but still with overwrite capabilities
Hello, I am trying to "suggest" a contact in a contact list column but can't find a way to automatically populate a cell while still having the ability to overwrite it later if that suggestion is not correct. So I've got a Program column, a Suggested column, and a Assignee column. Program is a dropdown and Suggested…

What is the difference between "My Smartsheet Contacts" and unlicensed users on "User Management"?
Hi, I have been adding team members onto my projects via the "Contact List" in my "Assigned To" column and can see them in my "My Smartsheet contacts". However, I was then reading that I could add unlicensed "Users" via "User Management" and noticed that my Smartsheet contacts aren't there. Do I need to add them to both…

Control Center and Contact Columns
I am using control center to create projects. In the sheet that gets provisioned, I have my resources listed. I want to bring the "Lead" contact back into the Intake sheet, but it is coming back as just text and not an actual Contact.

Could I for example, create a contact group of emails that are outside my organization so that I could easily share a dynamic view with all of them? The underlying sheet would have a contact column and I would restrict…

Dynamic View Contact List - Not showing all user names
@Genevieve P. My understanding is that a Contact field in Dynamic View will show a list of all users in the plan, and typing a portion of the name will show options. (Other community questions support this understanding.) Currently, it is not showing ALL users and typing a portion of the missing names does nothing. Why are…

Comment Automations
Greetings, Smartsheet Jedis! Is there a way of setting up an automation that alerts "specific people" as well as a "contact in a cell" whenever a comment is made on a sheet WITHOUT sending an alert to the person that submitted the comment? We currently have an automation in play that pings everyone whenever a comment is…

Auto Populate Contact List on Shared Smartsheet
Hello- I am looking for a solution to populate a couple hundred contacts into a Contact List for a shared Smartsheet without adding each contact to the sheet's Contact List manually. Here is the context: I have a shared Smartsheet that my team uses for tracking projects. Each project is assigned to a member of my team (all…

Backspace Functionality on Contact Object
Personally, I am infallible and have no need to remove a single character that I have ever written. However, I am assuming the rest of your users may misspell a name on occasion, or perhaps misplace a '.' in an email address on occasion. For those unfortunate individuals that fall victim to their own imperfection, the…
