Navigate to a view
When accessing Dynamic View, you land on the Home page.
From Home, you can see:
- All Views - List of all the views shared with you or owned by you.
- My Views - List of views that you own.
- Shared with me - List of views shared directly with you.
- Shared with Group - List of views shared with you via a Smartsheet group or domain.
To open a view, select it.
Your view is customized for you
Each view shared with you provides information relevant to the work you do.
Select a specific row to interact with its information. The Details panel appears on the right. It presents the row data. You may have edit access to certain fields and may be required to change field values before saving.
In the example above, the user viewing the Dynamic View can see all the displayed fields and can edit the Notes field.
Use the Filter icon in the upper-left corner to filter on rows with specific values.
The fields you can see and what you can do in them depend on what an Admin has allowed from their end. For example, Admins are responsible for configuring and sharing filters.
Save your changes
If you change any values in the Details Panel, select Save to save them. The values are saved to the source sheet.
Can’t do something in a view? Contact your Admin. Your views are configured by your organization's Dynamic View app Admin. If your views are missing something you want or you can’t edit something you believe you should be able to edit, contact your administrator.
