❗ June 2022 updates: the old buttons for adding notes, links, and attachments are now combined and replaced by one feature: Feeds.

The Feeds feature allows you to see the full history of the activities performed on the Platform.

Add comments, links, attachments, and status changes to your goals, numbers, reports, and discussion items.


Use Feeds for:

  • adding context to the progress of your work

  • having a full timeline on how decisions have been made

  • tracking progress

Where can I use Feeds?

You can use Feeds in Goals, Numbers, Reports, Actions, News, and Discussion items (Opportunities, Challenges, and general Discussions). Each individual item has its own Feed.

Feeds icon in Workfacta is two dialog bubbles

How do I update my Feeds?

You can add comments, links, and attachments in Feeds to provide more context to the item while updating on the Platform. Comments, links, and attachments in Feeds are called Feed items.

Users can add comments / links / attachments in Feeds

Feeds also show the status change history of the item.

In the example below, the user is updating the status of the Action "graphic design for the new logo" from 'Not Started' to 'In Progress'. Once updated, the change shows in that Action's Feed area, with the user's name, and the date and time when the update is made.

Example: Feed shows the status history of an Action

Feed can show the status history of an Action

How do I know there are updates in Feeds?

  • A Feed icon stays grey when a Feed is empty.

  • A Feed icon will turn blue when there are comments, links, or attachments in the Feed.

  • A red dot on a Feed icon indicates that there has been an unread item added to the Feed.

Feeds icon changes color from grey to blue when there are items in Feeds, and a red dot on Feeds icon indicate new unread items

💡 Tips:

  • As a team leader, Feeds helps you get a better idea of how an item is progressing, and make adjustments in time.

  • As a team member, Feeds allows you to update Actions, Goals, Numbers, and other items on the Platform with more details.
