Process comments

Add, edit, and delete comments on processes

Section titled “Add, edit, and delete comments on processes”

Comments on a process are for discussions about the overall workflow - not individual tasks. Anyone who can view the process can typically see and add comments.

How do I add a comment?

Section titled “How do I add a comment?”
  1. Open the running process you want to comment on.
  2. Find the Comments section.
  3. Type your message in the comment box.
  4. Click Post.
  5. Your comment appears with your name and timestamp.

How do I @mention people?

Section titled “How do I @mention people?”

Type @ followed by someone’s name to notify them directly.

  1. While typing your comment, type the @ symbol.
  2. Start typing the person’s name.
  3. Select the correct person from the dropdown.
  4. Click Post.

The mentioned person gets a notification. @mentioning someone on a task can also auto-assign them if they don’t already have access.

How do I edit a comment?

Section titled “How do I edit a comment?”
  1. Find your comment in the list.
  2. Click the Edit button (pencil icon) on your comment.
  3. Change the text.
  4. Click Save.

You can only edit your own comments. Organization admins can edit any comment.

How do I delete a comment?

Section titled “How do I delete a comment?”
  1. Find your comment.
  2. Click the Delete button (trash icon) on your comment.
  3. Confirm the deletion.

Deleted comments can’t be recovered. Like editing, only the comment author or an organization admin can delete a comment.

Process comments vs. task comments

Section titled “Process comments vs. task comments”
  • Process comments - general discussion about the whole workflow, visible in the main process view.
  • Task comments - questions or updates about a specific task, visible only when you open that task.

Comment history

Section titled “Comment history”

All comments are saved with the process as a permanent record. This helps when reviewing past decisions or onboarding new team members.

Do template comments carry over?

Section titled “Do template comments carry over?”

No. Comments on a template stay with the template - they don’t appear when you launch a process from it. Template comments are for design discussions; process comments are for the actual running work.
