Comment on activities

You can use activity comments to discuss activities with other members of your team, and to record updates, changes, and decisions (such as approvals) on activities. Because comments are visible to all users who have access to an activity, they're a great way to provide insight to all stakeholders as you plan, approve, and execute activities.

Activity comments are available on activities of all types. They are displayed in their own Comments panel alongside an activity's details panel. With activity comments, you can:

  • Add comments to an activity that are visible to all other users who have view access to that activity

  • Organize related comments into conversations with comment threads

  • @mention any user to notify them about your comment

  • Use emoji in comment text, or as reactions to comments
