Chat

Chat introduction

EasyBoards® provides a chat tool that can be used to collaborate on cards. A chat can be activated and managed for each card, directly from it (Cards details and settings).

Additionally, a chat console is available and can be activated from the chat sign available top right in EasyBoards®. From the chat console, just focus a chat by clicking on it and start to chat in right chat window. The result is the same when chatting from the card or the chat console.

The chat console makes available the list of chats (one for each card) on the left, organized in folders: Favorites, Recent, Snoozed and Ignored.

The following table, summarizes the different behaviour of chats when placed in the folders.

Folder	Behaviour
Favorites	Posts to chats are normally notified, the folder allows to easily access the most used chats.
Recent	This is the default folder where new chats are stored. Posts to chats are normally notified.
Snoozed	This folder is typically used to clear the Recent folder of chats that are no longer actual but could be used in the future. In case of new posts, the chat is restored in the Recent and notifications sent.
Ignored	No notifications are sent for chats stored in this folder.

Remember that chats are archived with cards.
