Anyway we can make this view only for security purposes? We would like to prevent users from sending responses to other users by accident.
I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet.

Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all.

We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
