Messages help keep project communication in one place. Use messages instead of scattered email threads whenever possible.

Messages

Use the Messages page to:
  • Ask project questions and clarify requirements.
  • Send notes or files to the team during production.
  • Reply to project updates and share revision feedback.
  • Keep communication tied to the correct project instead of scattering conversations across email.

Starting a new conversation

  1. On the Messages page, click Start New Chat to open the New Chat modal.
  2. Search for a contact by typing their name in the search bar. Select the contact to open or create a new thread.
  3. The conversation view opens with the thread title at the top. If a thread doesn’t exist yet, it will be created automatically.
  4. Compose your opening message and press Send.

Sending messages and attachments

  1. In the message composer at the bottom of the conversation, type your message in the text area. Press Enter to send, or Shift+Enter to add a new line.
  2. To add attachments, click the paperclip icon or choose Attach File. You can attach image, PDF, or video files.
  3. Use the toolbar to insert emojis, add bold formatting, or mention a teammate using @ followed by their name. Selecting a mention from the picker automatically inserts it into your message.
  4. When ready, click Send. Attachments will be uploaded automatically and appear in the message history.

Viewing and navigating conversations

  • The left sidebar shows your conversation list. Use the search bar at the top to filter threads by keyword.
  • Click a conversation to load it in the main view. Messages are grouped by day with a date label.
  • The conversation header shows the thread title, participants, and an icon to open attachments.
  • At the bottom of the conversation view, a footer displays the number of participants and attachments in the thread.
  • Click an attachment inside the message history to open or download it.

Requesting revisions

When requesting changes, be specific. A helpful revision note includes:
  • What needs to change
  • Where the issue appears
  • What the correct version should look like
  • Any reference files or examples that help explain the change

Example revision note

Please update step 4. The screw placement should show two screws on the left side instead of one. I uploaded a reference image in the Assets section.

Best practices

Keep each message focused on one topic when possible. If you have multiple changes, list them clearly so the team can review each one.
