Activity

Activity sits under Home in the Explorer sidebar's Overview group. Where Home tells you what happened, Activity tells you what is still open: the actions and Plan cards waiting on you, the ones you handed to someone else, and the comment threads nobody has resolved yet.

What lands here

Everything on the page comes from one of your documents, so the row always knows where it is from.

• Assigned to You — every open action whose assignee is you, on any document you can open. An action you assigned to yourself (the Myself row in the assign dialog) lives here too, so the page doubles as your to-do list across documents. Plan cards whose Assignee is you are listed here too, mixed in with the actions, until the card is finished: moved to a board's done column or past it, archived, or put in the Trash.
• You Assigned — open actions you assigned to somebody else. They are here so you can see what you are waiting on, not just what is waiting on you.
• Open Comment Threads — unresolved threads you are in. That means threads you wrote a comment in, threads where a teammate mentioned you, and threads on documents you own. A thread you were mentioned in carries a Mentioned You hint, and a row on your own document that you have not replied to yet carries a small Your document hint, so you can tell them apart.

Done actions, finished cards and resolved threads are not listed. Activity is an inbox, not a history; the Timeline and each document's own Collaborate panel keep the past.

Reading a row

A row leads with a glyph for its kind (the action clipboard or the comment bubble), then the action's name or, for a thread, the element it hangs off. Under that is the action's description or the latest comment. The last line says where the row is from: a chip with the document's name (a team document's chip carries the team glyph), then the element and the tab.

On the right is the person: the assignee for an action (brand-tinted and labelled You when that is you), or the latest commenter for a thread, with the time of the most recent change beneath. Hovering the avatar names them and, for a thread, says how many comments it holds.

A Plan card's row shows its card type's glyph, its number and title, and the type. Its last line names the board it is on and that board's tab, or says Not on a board when no board in the document shows it.

Rows are ordered by their most recent change, newest first, within each section.

Opening a row

Click a row and the document opens on the right tab with the element selected, scrolled into view, and its action or comment popover already open, the same place a Collaborate panel row takes you inside the editor. From there you complete the action, reassign it, resolve the thread, or reply, with the editor's usual rules about who can edit what.

A Plan card's row opens the document on the tab with the card's board, selects the board, and opens the card, the same as clicking it on the board. A card that is not on any board opens on the document's usual tab.

If the element has been deleted since the page loaded, the document still opens on that tab; there is simply nothing left to select.

The badge

The Activity row in the sidebar shows a count of the open actions and Plan cards assigned to you. It counts only work waiting on you, not work you handed out and not comment threads, and it disappears at zero. You can see from any other Explorer section whether something needs you.

Guests and signing in

Activity works without an account, like the rest of the canvas. Signed out, you can still assign actions to yourself and comment on your own documents, and both show up here.

Your activity follows you when you sign up. Actions you gave yourself and threads you wrote in as a guest still read as yours after you create an account, alongside the documents that move with you.
