System Admins can log into the Admin Center and access User Management
User Management features in the Admin Center allow you to add, remove, and edit users individually or in bulk. You can also generate various user reports, transfer ownership of items, and revoke access to your account’s shared Smartsheet items from external users.
With User Management, you can define the roles and user types of people in your account, and you’ll want to assign more than one System Admin to your account just in case the main System Admin isn’t available. For more information about user types, see Account-Level User Types for Business and Enterprise Plans.
To access the User Management, log in to the Admin Center with your Smartsheet credentials at https://admin.smartsheet.com/, then select User Management from the menu in the upper left corner.
To add a user to your account, select the Add User button at the top left of the User Management page, then fill out the user details in the Add User panel that opens on the left. Once you’ve filled out the details, select Invite to send that user an invitation.
NOTE: The user will need to accept the invitation before they are officially an active member of your organization.
To edit individual users, select their name from your User Management list. In the left-side Edit User panel, you can make various changes. See the table below:
