What is the lowest permission level required to edit data in a report?

The lowest permission level required to edit data in a report is Editor. This permission level allows users to modify the content of the report, including changing existing data or adding new data points. Editors have a range of permissions that facilitate collaboration, which includes not only viewing but also the ability to make updates and contributions to the report's content.

In the context of collaborative tools like Smartsheet, understanding permission levels is crucial for maintaining data integrity and controlling who can make changes. An Editor can effectively manage the information within a report, whereas other roles like Viewer and Commenter are limited in their capabilities; Viewers can only see the report without making any edits, and Commenters can suggest feedback but cannot alter the actual data. Admins have the highest level of permissions, allowing extensive control over the report, but they are not necessary for merely editing content. Therefore, being designated as an Editor is the baseline required for active engagement with the data within a report.
