Why This Feature Matters #
Without a centralized update view, users often spend time switching between Boards, Spaces, and Items to find new information.
The Activity Panel removes this friction by providing real-time visibility into all your activities. You can quickly identify what’s new, what’s assigned to you, and where your attention is needed—all without leaving your current workspace.
This saves time, improves focus, and ensures smooth communication.
Who Should Read This #
This article is designed for all Kaamfu users who want to stay updated efficiently throughout their workday.
- Employees who manage multiple tasks and spaces.
- Managers who need visibility across team activities.
- Admins and Owners who oversee workspace operations.
Whether you’re handling projects or monitoring teams, this guide will help you make the most of the Activity Panel.
What This Guide Covers #
By the end of this article, you’ll learn how to:
- Identify and interpret activity updates using badges and views.
- Use filters to focus on relevant updates.
- Apply best practices for maintaining clarity and responsiveness.
Feature Overview #
The Activity Panel provides a unified view of all updates happening across your workspace. It includes messages, task progress, and conversations organized by type and priority.
You can access it from the main navigation sidebar to review updates without opening each Board or Space individually.
Key Benefits #
The Activity Panel offers several tools that help you stay informed efficiently.
- Real-Time Indicators
Red badges highlight new messages, task changes, or assignments.
Badges disappear automatically once you view the update—no manual refresh required. - Dynamic Header Context
The header automatically adjusts to display the context of the selected activity (Space, Board, or Item).
You always know where you are without extra clicks. - Persistent Conversations
When you open a conversation or notes panel, it stays active as you browse other activities.
This makes it easy to follow multiple discussions at once. - Collapsed vs. Expanded Views
Collapsed View shows only the latest update per item for quick scanning.
Expanded View displays full navigation paths (Space → Board → Item) for detailed review.
Together, these tools create a faster and more focused update experience.
Step-by-Step Instructions #
Here’s how to use the Activity Panel effectively each day.
Step 1: Check for New Updates #
Open the Activity Panel to see new badges and unread items.
Badges will clear automatically once you review them.
Step 2: Use Filters for Focused Views #
Apply filters to see only the updates that matter:
Use Activity Filter for specific update types (e.g., Tasks or DMs).
Use Profile Filter to focus on updates from particular teammates.
Use Work Filter to narrow your view to a Space or Board.

Step 3: Review Conversations and Tasks #

Step 4: Adjust View Mode #
Switch between Collapsed and Expanded Views based on your workflow.
Collapsed is ideal for multitasking; Expanded is best for detailed tracking.
Reviewing your panel regularly helps you maintain visibility and control over all work activities.
