Adding a Task Message

How to use task messages in Task Activity to communicate with task owners and reviewers.

Review task messages are useful for review-task discussions that are not tied to a specific review task file. To comment on a specific part of a file, use the Add Comment action in the visual editor instead.

  1. Open the review task.
  2. Select Task Activity from the left stripe.

    Step Result: If a file from the review task is open in the visual editor, the Task Activity pane opens to the left of the editor. Otherwise, the full Task Activity page opens and shows all activity for the task.

  3. Click Add Message.
    Note:
    If the visual editor is also opened, you can find the Add Message by clicking the ellipsis (3 vertical dots) in the top-right corner of the Task Activity pane.
  4. Enter your message and click Add.

The message is added to the review task messages and anyone who has access to the review task can see it in the Task Activity.
