Which user type should a System Admin assign to a user who needs to create a workspace?

A user who needs to create a workspace must be assigned the Licensed User type. Licensed Users in Smartsheet have access to the full feature set of the platform, which includes the ability to create, edit, and manage workspaces. Workspaces are designed to be a higher level of organization within Smartsheet, allowing users to group together related sheets and other items to manage projects or teams effectively.

The Licensed User role is essential for anyone who requires these capabilities, as it provides not just the functionality to create a workspace but also access to all tools necessary for comprehensive collaboration and project management. This ensures that the user can leverage all the features available in Smartsheet to drive productivity and organization.

Other user types, such as Group Admin, System Admin, and Resource Viewer, have different permissions and limitations that do not include the ability to create workspaces. Group Admins manage groups but do not inherently have the permissions for workspace creation. System Admins generally have elevated permissions but are not necessarily assigned for user-specific needs like workspace creation. Resource Viewers have very limited access, meant primarily for viewing resources without any ability to create or modify items in Smartsheet.
