Channels & Messages

Not yet available

Channels and Messages exist in GreenVee’s underlying data model, but the app does not currently have a chat screen — there is no channel list, no way to open or create a Channel, and no message composer anywhere in the product. This page documents the concepts for reference. For real, working ways to keep a conversation with your file or task, see Drive, Folders, Files & Versions and the comment threads on Issues and Tasks.

Channels

A Channel is intended as a messaging space where a team can have conversations. Today a Channel has no properties beyond its system ID — it is not linked to a Project or a Task, and there is no way to create, name, or browse one from the interface.

Messages

A Message is a single post inside a Channel. Each message record has:

Field	What it means
Content	The text of the message
My message	A flag marking whether the message was sent by the current user — intended to display your own messages differently from others’ (e.g. on the right side of a chat)
Reference	An internal reference identifier stored on the message

The message model is intentionally simple: no threads, reactions, or reply chains — just a flat stream of posts. As above, there is currently no screen in GreenVee where you can read or send a Message.
