Task Comments and Mentions

2.3 Task Comments and Mentions

Comments in ACTIONBRIDGE keep communication organized, contextual, and visible to the right people. Instead of scattered chats, task-specific discussions happen directly inside the task detail panel — with support for mentions, rich text, and Microsoft Teams integration.

Adding a Comment

  • Open any task and scroll to the Comments section.
  • Type your message using rich text formatting if needed (e.g. bold, lists, links).
  • Click Post to submit your comment. It will be saved with your name and timestamp.

Using Mentions

  • Type @ followed by a teammate's name to mention them directly (e.g. @Nin).
  • Mentioned users receive a notification — in-app and/or in Microsoft Teams, depending on settings.
  • You can also mention entire roles or teams (e.g. @Developers) if configured.

Microsoft Teams Integration

  • When a comment is added, it can optionally post to the related Teams channel thread under an adaptive card.
  • Replies made in Teams are synced back into the task comment thread (if integration is enabled).
  • This keeps communication in sync across both platforms — Teams and ACTIONBRIDGE.

Comment History

  • All comments are stored with author and timestamp for visibility and auditability.
  • Deleted or edited comments (if allowed) are versioned and marked accordingly.

Tips

  • Use comments to provide updates instead of editing the task description — this keeps change history clean.
  • Mentioning someone is a great way to assign lightweight tasks without formal reassignment.
  • For important announcements, consider pinning or highlighting a comment at the top of the thread (if enabled).

With integrated comments and mentions, ACTIONBRIDGE brings conversation and execution into one space — aligned, searchable, and accountable.

I spend as much time simplifying as I do coding—because making things easy is part of the product. I build systems that work beautifully and explain themselves.
