    Core UI is required to use Connect Chat. Connect Chat is not supported in Next Experience. If you turn on Next Experience, Connect Chat will no longer work. See Next Experience UI for more information.

    Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

    You must first activate the Connect (com.glide.connect) plugin to complete this task.

    Any record conversation you create in Connect becomes a record feed in Live Feed, and vice versa. Unlike direct or group conversations, all messages in record conversations are comments or work notes.
    Nota:
    By default, record conversations are enabled for all tables that extend Task [task]. Administrators can enable record conversations for additional tables or disable them if desired.

    Procedimento

    1. Navigate to a task record.
    2. Do one of the following actions.
