Which user role requires a Smartsheet license?

The correct answer is that a user who needs to create a new sheet requires a Smartsheet license. This is because the ability to create sheets is a fundamental capability that is restricted to licensed users within the Smartsheet platform. Licensed users have full access to the functionalities that Smartsheet offers, including creating, editing, and managing sheets.

In contrast, users who merely fill out a Smartsheet form do not require a license, as form fill-out capabilities are accessible to anyone, regardless of their user status. Similarly, users who edit the status of tasks can do so if they are part of a shared sheet and can make modifications without needing a license, depending on their permissions. Lastly, while a System Admin does need a license to perform their role, the specific action of creating a sheet is a clear indication of the necessity for a license. Thus, the requirement for a Smartsheet license is explicitly tied to the ability to create new sheets, making it the correct choice in this context.
