Add discussions and comments to notes to communicate with your team members and share feedback.

What are Discussions?

Discussions offer a way for team members to exchange ideas without directly editing shared notes. Start a discussion to communicate with others, share feedback and alert other team members of important information by mentioning them.

You can view a note's active discussions by clicking the discussions icon on the right sidebar. Content blocks that include discussions are marked with a yellow icon which displays the number of discussions and comments still open on that block.
