Using the Collaboration Tool on Roadmap Items #
The Collaboration Tool is designed to help teams communicate, track progress, and keep all related work connected while executing on specific roadmap items.
Where to Find the Collaboration Tool #
The Collaboration Tool is available in two places:
- Initiatives
- Navigate to Initiatives
- Open a specific Roadmap Item
- Meetings
- Open a meeting
- Go to Initiatives
- Select a Roadmap Item
In both locations, the collaboration panel appears directly within the roadmap item.
Purpose of the Collaboration Tool #
The Collaboration Tool provides a third layer of context by connecting:
- Conversations
- Tasks
- Resources
directly to a single roadmap item.
This ensures that all discussion and execution related to that initiative lives in one place.
Communicating with Team Members #
On the right-hand side of the roadmap item, you can:
- @mention individuals
- Communicate directly within the software
When someone is mentioned:
- The message appears in their Notifications
- Activity is logged on the roadmap item
This creates visibility into progress and ongoing work without relying on external communication tools.
Activity Tracking #
The collaboration panel shows:
- All activity related to the roadmap item
- Updates from comments, tasks, and resources
You can choose to:
- Show activity
- Hide activity
This allows you to control how much detail is visible while working.
Managing Tasks from the Collaboration Tool #
From the collaboration panel, you can:
- Link an existing task to the roadmap item
- Create a new task directly from the roadmap item
- Assign tasks to specific individuals
Once assigned:
- The task appears in the activity log
- Ownership and progress are clearly tracked
Connecting Resources #
Under Resources, you can:
- Attach existing resources to the roadmap item
- Add new resources
- Assign editors and viewers
This ensures that documents, files, and reference materials remain tied to the initiative they support.
