How do I add comments and files to a task?

Open the task and use its comment box to discuss progress, or attach files directly — both stay with the task instead of scrolling away in chat.

Steps

1. Open the task.
2. Scroll to the comments section and type an update or question, then post it.
3. To attach a file, use the attachment control in the comment box, or drag a file into the task.
4. Everyone with access to the task sees the comment and file immediately.

Tips

• Use task comments for anything future readers of the task need to know — status updates, blockers, decisions — rather than burying them in a channel where they'll scroll out of view.
• Comments notify the assignee and anyone else following the task, based on your task notification settings.
