Add Comment Section to a form
Hello,
Is there a way to add the comments section to a form? Or a formula to move / copy text from a comments column into the comments section?
Thanks!
Matt L.

Hi Matt,
Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment, but it's an excellent idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment to have your vote added
As a workaround, the third-party service, Zapier, could be an excellent option for this scenario. Is that an option for you?
I hope that helps!
Have a fantastic week!

Hi Andre,
Thank you for the response and confirmation. I submitted an enhancement request as well.
I don't think Zapier would assist in this scenario as far as i can tell, thank you for the reference. It looks like there may be other functions they offer that could assist in other projects I am working on.
Have a great day,
Matt

Agreed about this feature - it's great that comments can be added through the "request an update" feature, but wish it was available in a form, without having to add a Comment column and then copy the data out. Adds way too many steps to my projects.

Agree. This'd be a very helpful function.

Agree. I need my Comments to be easily visible in my Dashboards and Reports, just like Excel allows the Show/Hide feature for Notes/Comments.

@Matt LantermanI'm not seeing your enhancement request to upvote. Do you happen to have a link?
I did come across this one, if anyone else is interested in upvoting:https://community.smartsheet.com/discussion/100259/form-fields-to-include-comments
