Managing communication while working on projects can be a challenge. Inbox clutter, endless notifications, and the need to switch platforms just to reply can slow down your workflow. It’s a frustrating and time-consuming process.
The “Reply By Email to Chat” feature makes it possible to respond directly to chat notifications from your email. Just hit “Reply” in your email client, and your message syncs seamlessly with the corresponding chat – effortlessly keeping the conversation flowing and organized.
Here’s how this feature works for both task card chats and board-level chats, and why it can make collaboration smoother and more efficient.
How “Reply By Email to Chat” Works
Inside Task Cards
When a conversation happens within a task card, email notifications include the chat history and task details. You can hit “Reply” in your email client, and your response will instantly appear in the chat section of the task card.
In the Board Chat
Board-level communication is equally seamless. Chat messages from the board chat are delivered to your email, and when you respond, your reply syncs back into the board chat for everyone to see. No logins required!
The Magic Behind “Reply By Email to Chat”
- Stay in Context: Email notifications include the full conversation thread, linked directly to the relevant task or board. You can hit “Reply” in your email, and your message is automatically synced as a chat update, keeping everything connected and clear.
- No Clutter, Just Clarity: Unnecessary email signatures, logos, and attachments are automatically removed, ensuring discussions remain clean, focused, and easy to follow.
- Keep Everyone Aligned: Your email reply isn’t just logged—it’s instantly visible to all teammates with access to the task or board, ensuring that everyone stays updated and on the same page.
