Giving Users Access to Their Dynamic View

How do I give the users I've "named"/shared to in a Dynamic View access to that Dynamic View? Do I copy and paste the Dynamic View URL and send it to them, or is there another way?

    I typically send and email with the view URL as you described above. I believe the views should just show when they open the app but I have found that sometimes they need to access it via the URL first for it to appear.

  • Thank you, Kimberly.

    I thought that sharing the URL should work and you confirmed this, but for some reason they are getting errors that the url doesn't exist.

    Maybe I'm using the wrong URL? Are you using the URL for the view screen itself?

disregard. support reminded me you initiate the connection to the app from the app, then it appears in the list of apps in smartsheet.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":343,"name":"Add Ons and Integrations","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/apps-and-integrations","allowedDiscussionTypes":["discussion","question"]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[]},{"discussionID":108349,"type":"question","name":"Automate attachments or links from Onedrive to row in sheet (or vice versa)","excerpt":"Context: (sorry its long!)

@Tim Starkey<\/a> I have two potential options you could investigate to see if they meet your needs:<\/p>

  1. Data Shuttle: You mentioned you work for a small company and already use SCC. If it's been a while since you talked with your account rep, I suggest contacting them just to see what they can offer. I've seen them offer much more attractive pricing to small companies lately. (One company I'm working with was able to upgrade to Advance for a fraction of what they were quoted a few years ago.)<\/li>

    Hi Lori Khoury,<\/p>

    I got 2 ideas :<\/p>

    1. Build a Report that refer to all project sheets (as source sheets) and setup \"As current user\" filter, then embed that Report to a Dashboard (with Viewer mode setting is \"Their own perspective\" in Dashboard). The viewer will not see only data regarding to them without the comment column.<\/li>
    2. Build a Report that refer to all project sheets (as source sheets) and build a Dynamic View (DV) that refer to this Report (as source data) and setup :
      1. \"As current user\" filter in this DV for external stakeholders to see only data regarding to them. <\/li>
      2. Hide comment<\/li><\/ol><\/li><\/ol>

        This will save your effort to build many DV for different stakeholders<\/p>

        Hope that helps<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":343,"name":"Add Ons and Integrations","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/apps-and-integrations","allowedDiscussionTypes":["discussion","question"]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[{"tagID":466,"urlcode":"control-center","name":"Control Center"},{"tagID":578,"urlcode":"portfolio-workapp","name":"PORTFOLIO WORKAPP"},{"tagID":580,"urlcode":"workapp","name":"workapp"},{"tagID":581,"urlcode":"comments","name":"comments"},{"tagID":582,"urlcode":"global-updates","name":"global updates"}]}],"initialPaging":{"nextURL":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/api\/v2\/discussions?page=2&categoryID=343&includeChildCategories=1&type%5B0%5D=Question&excludeHiddenCategories=1&sort=-dateLastComment&limit=3&expand%5B0%5D=all&expand%5B1%5D=-body&expand%5B2%5D=insertUser&expand%5B3%5D=lastUser&status=accepted","prevURL":null,"currentPage":1,"total":631,"limit":3},"title":"Trending Posts","subtitle":null,"description":null,"noCheckboxes":true,"containerOptions":[],"discussionOptions":[]}">
