In which scenario would an Admin permission level be necessary?

An Admin permission level is necessary for changing a user’s permission settings because this action involves managing the access and roles of other users within the Smartsheet environment. Admin users have the highest level of control, allowing them to grant or restrict permissions based on the needs of the organization. This capability is vital for maintaining security, ensuring that only authorized individuals can view or edit sensitive information.

Other choices, such as editing report criteria, creating a new sheet, and sharing a sheet with external users, typically do not require Admin privileges. These activities can usually be performed by users with lower permission levels, enabling greater flexibility for collaboration and content creation without needing the extensive controls that an Admin provides.
