How to add comments to documents
- You can only add comments inside a document when you're editing it. From the edit screen, select the speech bubble icon next to Inputs.
- Doing so will switch you from the Inputs view to the Conversation view. Inside the Conversation view, you will find current comments added by other users (if there are any) and will have the ability to interact with these comments or add new ones.
- Select the Write a comment editor and type in your comment to add a comment. You can tag a specific input you may be referring to or assign the comment to a user. Assigning a comment to a user ensures they will be notified about your comment.
- Select Send once you're happy with the comment, assigned it to the user, and tagged an input.
- You can also view and add input-specific comments by editing the input and selecting the speech bubble. Input-specific comments will have a blue input labeled tag under it.
