Board Collaboration services

Board's Collaboration services gather everything users need to connect, share, and work together on Board Cloud Platforms in the same unified interface.

They add unique, in-context communication capabilities to analytical applications and business models already based on Board.

Board's Collaboration services include the following features:

• Feed. This feature allows authorized users to publish news and other content visible to specific user groups within a Platform. Authors can include images, files, and direct links to Board resources (Capsules and/or Screens).
  

• Discussions. This feature has been designed specifically for Capsules and Screens to allow users to start discussion threads at the Capsule or Screen level. Other users can then reply to an existing thread or start a new one. Discussions can include a file attachment and a user's custom filters for the currently open Screen so that other users can then regenerate the exact Screen view as when it was shared by the creator.
  

• Chat. This feature allows users to start chatting with one or multiple users. It is also possible to share files and links to specific Screens with one user's custom filters applied (i.e. by clicking on the link, the recipient(s) will access the Screen with the exact same configuration as when it was shared by the creator).

Board's Collaboration services can be reached from anywhere in Board via the 3 dedicated icons in the Top Menu:

A badge counter on each icon displays the number of unread content, threads, and chat messages.

To enable and configure Board's collaboration services, see the chapter on Collaboration in the Subscription Hub reference manual.
