Why do i need "admin approval" to use the smartsheet app in teams?

I'm trying to add a Smartsheet to a teams channel as a tab and I get the error:

Admin approval needed. Smarsheet needs admin approval to enable channel level sharing for this app. You may continue without this feature, or, if you're an admin you may use the button below to grant approval.

But hitting the "grant permissions" button doesn't work. My IT collaboration team recommended I post this to the community for assistance.

    You will have to get an admin of Teams to allow the Smartsheet for Teams app in the admin console of Teams.

Hello @kathyb<\/a>! The card view \"View by ___\" are the columns that are dropdown lists \/ single select options. If that dropdown list column type changed to \"allow multiple values per cell\" it's no longer a valid column type to organize the card view.

Hey @Pamela Wagner<\/a> <\/p>

Based on your explanation it does sound like you're meeting the criteria Paul identified. As long as the owner of the original sheet is shared to your other sheet as an Admin, you should be able to select it in the workflow. <\/p>

It is possible that the \/ is affecting the search. What happens when you search just for the word \"Archive\"?<\/p>

Note that if you only JUST created the sheet, it can take around 5 minutes for the search to index and include it as an option. <\/p>

Cheers,<\/p>
