MCP Server Development Plans
I've been using the MCP server with ChatGPT and Codex, and the results have been very promising. However, I've encountered some limitations when trying to interact with Premium products and automations. Has anyone heard whether further development is planned to expand MCP access to these products and capabilities?…

Enable attachments in automations when using 'message only' option
We receive data from externals which we then need to verify. Once it's verified we then email them back a PDF (that's been generated using 'generate document' feature) as it contains the crucial information that's been verified, and they can keep as a confirmation. Currently, I use the message only format in an alert…

A one - page guide: Workflows, Smart Assist, Smart Columns, Data Shuttle, DataMesh, MCP, Bridge, iPaaS or the API?

Embed Smartsheet fields into Automation emails
It would be great if we could embed Smartsheet fields into the body of an automation email. For example, I have several emails going to different departments and if the auto email could be set-up like below, it would save time, clicks, confusion, etc.: <<Smartsheet field1>> has submitted a new request. The request…

Update options under automation section
All of our forms are capturing the person's email who submitted the request. Under the automation section, add the option to alert the person who sent the form to receive an update when a specific field is changed. This would function as a specific notification of completion for the request that was submitted.
