Comment on files and mention people

Comments let you discuss a file where it is, without sending messages back and forth. Everyone who has access to the file can take part.

#Add a comment

1. Open the file to preview it.

2. Open the Comments sidebar.

3. Write your comment and send it.

   

You can also:

• pin a comment to a point or an area of the file, or add a drawing;

• on a video, attach the comment to a moment of the timeline;

• reply to a comment, like it or react with an emoji.

#Mention someone

Type @ in a comment, then choose the person. You can mention anyone who has access to the file, or a member of the workspace.

The person always receives a notification in Drime and an email, … mentioned you on …, whatever their notification settings.

#Resolve a discussion

When a comment has been dealt with, open its menu and choose Mark as resolved. Choose Reopen to bring it back. To see what is left to do, sort the comments with unresolved ones first.

#Who is notified

• When someone comments, the owner and the people who have access to the file are notified.

• When someone replies to your comment, you are notified.

#Good to know

• Only the author of a comment can edit or delete it.

• People who open the file through a share link can read and post comments too. Their comments appear under the name Guest.
