What is the Updates View?
The Updates View provides a single, real-time activity stream of everything that’s happening to the🧊 Objects
you are looking at. Instead of a table or a board, it presents information as a chronological feed, similar to a social media timeline, with the newest updates at the top.
It’s designed to help you and your team stay on top of all recent changes, conversations, and progress without having to click into every individual 🧊 Object
.

How to Use the Updates View
The Updates View is a powerful tool for both broad oversight and focused catch-ups.Getting the Big Picture
By default, the view shows a combined feed of all🧊 Objects
included in your current filter. This is perfect for a manager who wants to get a quick overview of all team activity in the last few hours.
Focusing on a Single Object
The view typically includes a side panel listing all the🧊 Objects
that are part of the current filter. You can click on any 🧊 Object
in this list to filter the feed instantly and see only the activity history for that specific item. This allows you to quickly get the full context and history of a single piece of work.
Interacting Directly from the Feed
The Updates View is not just for reading. You can reply to messages, @mention colleagues, and add your own comments directly from the feed, making it a powerful tool for asynchronous collaboration. [Guidejar Placeholder: A short tutorial showing a user in the Updates View. They see a new message on an Object, click a ‘Reply’ button directly in the feed, type a message with an @mention, and post it without leaving the view.]Combine the Updates View with a
Saved Filter
to create powerful, custom feeds. For example, create a “My High Priority Tasks” filter and then switch to the Updates View to see a real-time feed of only the work that matters most to you right now.
