Custom email domains

Available for: Enterprise plans

To realize the full value of the Smartsheet platform, it’s important to implement automation that improves visibility and encourages action on key tasks, due dates and comments. But, if users aren’t seeing or responding to those notifications, you won’t achieve the intended results.

To ensure Smartsheet reminders, requests and notifications are not routed to your email’s spam folder or flagged as external communications, use a custom email domain to specify the email address for any automated emails you receive from Smartsheet.

For instance, a common scenario is admin teams setting automated emails to originate from domains like “smartsheet.companyabc.corp.com” instead of “app.smartsheet.com.

Before:

All emails sent from Smartsheet originate from “app.smartsheet.com” domain by default.

Setup:

Follow the prompts in Admin Center to enable a custom email domain for your organization.

After:

Now, all Smartsheet emails from your account come from the email domain you specified.

自定义发送者的名字

Available for: All plan types

Beyond the email address itself, users often pay more attention to the sender name specified in the email. Previously, the From Name for all automated alerts and requests could either be the sheet owner or the person who triggered the automation, which sometimes caused confusion. To improve response rates and boost clarity, we are giving Smartsheet workflow builders the flexibility to customize the sender name associated with automated workflows to one of the following:

  1. 内容自动化
  2. Your organization name*
  3. The triggering user (for alerts)
  4. The sheet owner (for update and approval requests)

Before:

The From Name for Smartsheet notification emails would either be the triggering user or the sheet owner.

Setup:

Soon, you’ll be able to further customize the From Name to read as “Smartsheet Automation” or your organization name.

After:

Future notification emails will come from the chosen From Name option, listed above.

*Note: The “Send from my organization” option will only be available for customers on Enterprise plans. In a future release, we will also add the option to set the From Name as a specific licensed individual associated with your account (e.g., “John Smith”).
