Send channel message with updates

By default, updates to all the tasks in a project will be sent in a Primary Project Message on the channel. Depending on how much time has passed since the last message was sent, the message will be updated with new information, or a new one will be sent, replacing the previous one.

• Check off this option and “Save” to stop sending new messages automatically. Instead, the pinned message will always be updated, new one will not be sent.

  

• A message will be sent to the channel to let others know why they might not see new updates.
