I understand on 9/19/2019 Smartsheet changed unlicensed user functionality. The send row function is now no longer working for a two users I share a sheet with. The function is grayed out and returns a message to upgrade to a paid level. They cannot cannot perform their job duties without this function. The UNM HSC should not have to purchase two more licenses just so these employees can use the send row functionality.
Hi Marie,
I'm not sure it has to do with the changes to the free plan.
If you haven’t already, I would recommend that you reach out to the Smartsheet Support Team. Smartsheet Support Team
Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic week!

Here's my response from Support. Apparently the new licensing does negatively impact the Send Row Feature:
Hello Marie,Thanks for contacting Smartsheet Support about unlicensed users not having access to the Send row feature. I'm happy to provide more information about this.Several weeks ago, all System Administrators for Smartsheet accounts were notified of planned changes to the capabilities of free (unlicensed) user accounts. Those changes have now been implemented. More details about these changes are available here - https://app.smartsheet.com/b/publish?EQBCT=258f80b10559472490a602df64fb3fa6Users who require the capabilities of a licensed account should contact their organization's System Administrator. A Sys Admin can be located as follows:
Users who are not part of a multi-user plan but require a license can follow the prompts displayed within the application to upgrade.Please let us know if you need further assistance with this. There is no need to reply to this email if I have answered all your questions. As a valued Smartsheet customer, I welcome your feedback on the brief survey at the bottom of this email.
Kind Regards,Richard | Smartsheet SupportFind self-service resources here: Smartsheet Learning Center, Help, and Community.
I'm surprised that Smartsheet wasn't more forthcoming with ALL their users about this. And while I agree that one should need a license to manage and drive processes (in addition to Smartsheet continuing to make money), some of the functionality taken away from non-licensed users doesn't rise to that level, at least in my opinion.
I wish they had considered a "tier 2" level license. Something like full "Admin" permissions require the purchase of a "supplemental" Admin licence for those who aren't already licensed users for like $25-$100 per year.
Hello everyone, I am experiencing an issue with a workspace in Smartsheet. The workspace was originally created by a user whose account has since been deleted. Ownership of the workspace has been transferred to me, and I am currently listed as the owner. However, I am unable to delete the workspace. The delete option is…
Hi there, I have just recently worked with Smartsheet's Implementation team to build a Control Center Blueprint. The workspace that holds the solution is titled something very generic and I would like to rename it. Can I do that w/out breaking anything or what steps would I need to take to successfully rename it. Thanks in…
Hey, I've got a sheet, which is autopopulated as a source sheet to feed into DataMesh (which runs once every 24 hours). Once DataMesh has run, how can I auto-clear the rows in the sheet to avoid repeating this the next day? I have no use to keep the data and want to avoid clogging up the source sheet. I have tried…
