We are trying to use Coda to track project management in a shared doc with a client. Comments are used a significant amount, but it’s not obvious until you click on a page if there are unresolved comments. Our docs tend to have 15+ sections as they grow with the client and the notification system i…

Totally agree. We come from using Asana where notification management is one of the greatest weaknesses of the system and it would be great to see Coda doing a better job here.

@Colin_Nickerson I posted a system we are using in our docs for this on another thread . I should add that we don’t have a goal of moving away or trying to replicate discord-like tools in Coda. We do our “live” communication in tools like Slack, google meet, etc, with status updates and critical tr…

Another idea here would be to make them zapier/api accessible … some users of docs would prefer an email, others an SMS, etc.
