What workflow action should Naomi use to remind her collaborators to update their task status without accessing the sheet?

Naomi should use the "Request an update" workflow action to remind her collaborators to update their task status without needing them to access the sheet directly. This action allows her to send a direct notification to specific collaborators, prompting them to update their assigned tasks. It streamlines the process by creating a clear request that is focused explicitly on updating the task statuses, making it clear what is needed from the recipients.

Using "Request an update" is beneficial because it typically includes links back to the relevant tasks, allowing users to easily respond to the request directly from their email or notification center, thus enhancing the efficiency of the workflow without requiring them to navigate through the sheet itself.

In comparison, sending an email is more generic and does not link directly to task statuses or prompt specific updates in Smartsheet. Logging a comment does not initiate any action for task updates and remains within the context of the sheet, which may not capture the attention of all collaborators effectively. Setting a reminder could notify collaborators of a deadline or event, but it does not inherently prompt them to take action regarding their task statuses.
