You must be the Owner or have Admin-level sharing permissions to the Smartsheet item that you want to add as a tab in a Microsoft Teams channel. (More on Smartsheet Sharing Permission Levels .) If a Smartsheet item has already been published (from Smartsheet directly or by being added to a channel), people that are shared to the item from Smartsheet are able to add it to other Teams channels.
Another query we ran across in our research was “Do I need multiple tabs for Smartsheet?”.
One source stated once the sheets are imported to your account, you can use cell linking to link cells between sheets. Yes, multiple tabs for Smartsheets are essential – even if it is limited to 5-10 tabs. It is the one most annoying feature about Smartsheet that always makes me want to use Excel.
How do I add a form to a Smartsheet?

While reading we ran into the inquiry “How do I add a Smartsheet to my Channel?”.
Locate the Smartsheet item you want in the tab, either by searching for it by name or by navigating through your Home directory, then select the item and click Save. Set how people in the channel can interact with the Smartsheet item by making it read only or editable by anyone.
One of the next things we wanted the answer to was; how do I add a Smartsheet item to a Microsoft Teams channel?
