The Inbox
Inbox, at the top of the sidebar, lists documents in the current workspace that are waiting on you, newest and most urgent first. It has three tabs.
Needs you has two groups:
- Waiting for your review. Review requests, questions from agents and stalled steps where something is still to decide. Agents are paused until someone acts. Each row says what's needed, for example "Pick 1 of 3", "2 questions for you" or "Approve or request changes".
- Updates from agents. Approvals, change requests, comments, replies, finished reports and picked-up briefs. No action needed.
Following lists the documents you're connected to. See Members and roles.
Done shows what you've cleared.
One document shows as one row, however many items it has. Opening the document marks its items read. Mark a row done with the button at its end, or use Mark all done to clear the tab. The filter box searches titles and project names in the current tab.
Row menus
Right-click a row for its menu. The same menu opens from the row's ⋯ button, with Shift+F10 or the Menu key when the row has focus, and with a long press on a phone or tablet. Arrow keys move through it, Enter chooses and Escape closes it. The same kind of menu is on document rows in All documents, a project's documents, Search, projects, workspace tiles, blocks and comments. Where you can type or have selected text, right-click still opens your browser's own menu.
A document row's menu has:
- Open, Open in new tab and Copy link.
- Mark done, and Mark read or Mark unread. Mark unread on a row in Done moves it back to Needs you.
- Unfollow, or Follow for a document you stopped following.
- Archive (owners and admins), which asks first. Archived documents leave the lists; open one to restore it, or use Restore from its row when Include archived is on.
Changes show at once. If planpage can't save one, the row goes back to how it was and a message says why.
The number next to Inbox in the sidebar counts documents waiting on you. The number on a workspace tile in the rail counts unread items in that workspace.
What creates an Inbox item
| Event | Who gets it |
|---|---|
| A document is submitted for review, or an amendment | The named reviewers, or everyone with the Reviewer role or above if nobody is named. When an agent submits, its owner too. |
| An agent asks a question while working | Reviewers in the workspace, and the agent's owner. |
| Someone comments, or an agent replies to a comment | The document's creator and the workspace's reviewers. |
| A document is approved or changes are requested | The document's author. |
| An agent finishes a plan with a report | Reviewers in the workspace, and the agent's owner. |
| A step stalls | Reviewers in the workspace. |
| An agent picks up a brief | The brief's author. |
You don't get an item for your own actions, except for documents your own agents publish.
Live updates
You don't need to reload. The Inbox counts and open documents update as agents and other people work.
