Chat — Yesterday's information, found in three words.

Comunik Sphere Chat search filters by sender, conversation, date or file, and groups the results. Hashtags gather a topic, pinned messages stay at the top of the group, and your saved messages keep a note.

Search results in the Chat list, grouped into conversations, colleagues and messages.

From Rim, in astrea,
the word "order".

You type operators in the field and they turn into tokens: from:, in:, before:, after:, has:. The filters window does the same if you'd rather not memorize them.

  • from: for the sender
  • in: for the conversation
  • before: and after: for the period
  • has: for messages with a file
The search field with the tokens "from: Rim" and "in: astrea", and the operator legend below.

Keep it handy

What matters doesn't get buried.

Three ways to set a message aside: for a topic, for the whole group, or for yourself.

  1. Hashtags

    One hashtag,
    the whole topic.

    Click #palette3 in a message to open every message that carries it, across all your conversations.

    • Clickable hashtag
    • Every message with the hashtag
    • Search inside the panel
    The "Messages with #palette3" panel: three messages from Sonia Lahmar, Mehdi Jouini and Rim Bouazizi.
  2. Pinned

    Group information
    stays on top.

    A pinned message shows as a banner above the thread. With several pinned messages, the banner cycles through them, and a link shows them all.

    • Banner above the thread
    • Several pinned messages
    • Seen by the whole group
    The "Pinned message 1 of 2" banner at the top of the astrea-livraison group.
  3. Saved

    Your saved messages,
    with a note.

    A message you save goes to "Saved messages". You can add a note there that only you can see.

    • Saved messages
    • One note per message
    • Visible to you only
    The "Saved messages" panel, Favorites tab: a message from Rim Bouazizi with the note "Attach to the Astréa invoice".
The "Messages with #palette3" panel: three messages from Sonia Lahmar, Mehdi Jouini and Rim Bouazizi.

Hashtags

One hashtag,
the whole topic.

Click #palette3 in a message to open every message that carries it, across all your conversations.

  • Clickable hashtag

Follow

Your mentions and threads,
in a single list.

Messages that mention you are collected in one panel, filtered by date. "All my threads" does the same for the threads you replied in.

  • All mentioned messages, filtered by date
  • All my threads, with the latest reply
  • List filters: unread, online, guests, archived
  • Drafts kept and listed in one place
The "All mentioned messages" panel, filtered on this week: three mentions in astrea-livraison, general and design.

The inventory

What search can do, and what's missing.

What's in gray doesn't exist yet, or not everywhere (web or phone). We'd rather say so.

Not yet, or not everywhere
