Collaborating Over Streams

Collaborating Over Streams

In this article, we'll see how you can collaborate effectively with your team members by sharing your emails, notes, and tasks.

Sharing Emails via Streams 

In the Mail module, you can enable the Streams Comments dialog as a popover or have it below the email detail view. When it's enabled as a popover, use the steps below to share an email with a colleague or a group:

  1. Navigate to the Mail module.

  1. Click open the email you want to share.

  1. Click the Share This Email  icon from the email detail view.

  1. @mention the user or group in the comment section and click Send.

  1. Click the Add or View Invitees  icon.

  1. In the Invitees popup, choose from the list of suggestions or search and select the contact or the group with whom you want to share the email.

  2. Click Invite. 



Alternatively, if Streams Comments is disabled as a popover, you'll find it below the email detail view. You can follow the same procedure from step three to share the email.


Notes:

  • If you want to prevent invitees from adding other contacts or groups to the email (or other elements such as notes or tasks) you've shared via Streams, click the Refuse Other Invitees icon.


Interacting with Streams Elements 

In addition to sharing your emails, notes, and tasks, you can interact with the Streams elements by commenting, replying to comments, liking comments, @mentioning, attaching files, adding emojis, and removing/refusing other invitees.


Like 

When you like Streams elements such as emails, notes, tasks, events, messages, or bookmarks, you show your approval or your interest. To do so, click the Like  icon in the top-right corner of the Streams Comments popover.

Note: To undo the like action, simply click the icon again.

Comment 

To comment on any Streams by you or others:

  1. Navigate to the Streams Comments dialog.

  1. Type your comment in the comment textbox.

@mention 

You can tag a team member in the Streams comments by @mentioning them. This is also another way to add them as an invitee to view an email, note, or task.

To attach files in your comments:

  1. Click the Attach File  icon in the comment textbox.

  1. In the dialog that opens, browse the attachment from your local device and click Open.

  1. Type any comments, if required, in the comment textbox.

  1. Click the Comment  icon.

Note: The maximum file size permitted per comment is 10 MB.  

Remove Invitees

To remove invitees and unshare a Streams element:

  1. Click the Add or View Invitees  icon.

  1. In the Invitees pop-up, click the Uninvite  icon of the users you want to revoke access to view the email, note, or task.


Refuse Other Invitees 

You can prevent users that you've invited to view an email, note, or task from adding other users. To do so, click the Refuse Other Invitees  icon in the top-right corner of the Streams Comments popover. 

Notifying About Streams Activities 

You'll be notified of the following Streams activities in the Notification Center indicated by the Bell  icon in the app toolbar:

  • When a user shares an email, note, or task with you by adding you as an invitee

  • When a user shares an email draft

  • When a user likes your post

The number of unread notifications will also be listed on the Bell  icon. To view these notifications:
