Configure a safe sharing policy
Prerequisites
- Before you turn on safe sharing, ensure you've added and validated at least one domain.
Once the policy is set up, Smartsheet automatically includes your activated domains in your allow list. Doing this will enable sharing with users in the allow list and those who belong to any validated domain. Learn more about the safe sharing policy.
To set up the policy
- Go to Admin Center and select the menu icon on the top-left corner.
- Navigate to Governance Controls.
Select Manage on the Safe Sharing Policy card.

Deactivate safe sharing
- In the Safe Sharing Policy right pane, slide the toggle to turn off the policy.
Disabling the safe sharing policy across your plan allows your users to share Smartsheet items with anyone outside of your organization.
Edit your allowlist
- Select Manage on the Safe Sharing Policy card.
- Select Edit Sheet on the list you'd like to edit:
- Domains allowed
- Email addresses allowed
- Add, edit, remove domains or addresses from the list.
When adding domains, don't include the @. For example, @domain.com should be entered as domain.com.
If you've accidentally deleted your safe sharing list, you have 30 days to retrieve it from the recycle bin.
Enable requests for additional domains
When you activate safe sharing, you can share a link to a form. This form allows members of your organization's plan to request System Admins to add extra domains or email addresses to the allow list. You can use the Input URL here field for this purpose.
Once you do that, the link will appear in a Smartsheet window whenever someone attempts to share or email an item from Smartsheet to someone whose email address falls outside the allowlist.
Your link can be:
- A URL for an existing system your organization uses (such as an IT ticketing site)
Any Smartsheet items that you shared before enabling domain restrictions remain shared to anyone outside of the approved domains. You can generate a sheet access report to see shared items.
