Taking picture within smartsheet forms

Carl Muniz

Is it possible to have a picture taken within a smartsheet (mobile) form be attached as a pdf instead of a jpg? Whenever i go to attach a picture and take a picture within the form, it gets uploaded as a jpg.

Thank you - Carl

Hi Carl,

Yes, but you need to take the picture in another app and then save it as a pdf and then attach that pdf in the form.

Would that work for you?

I hope this helps you!

Why has the functionality of taking a picture OR having the option to upload one not available? We are building a basic bookkeeping system around expense report forms, and this feature could make smartsheet one of the most seamless way to track receipts.

Hi again Carl,

You can take a picture or upload a photo or file. The file can be a pdf.

There are other automation options thru Zapier or similar services if you need.

Best,

Andrée

Hello,

I created a new form today. My first form in smartsheet. How do I give the user the option to upload or take a photo?

Andrée Starå

Hi Laura,

The field for upload has to be included on the form.

Please see the attached link/screenshot for more information.
