It helps users track what has been shared, exported, or triggered across channels and features. ## **What you’ll see in Outbox** The Outbox displays: * Messages sent in channels * Note exports (HTML / PDF / JSON / Markdown) * Canvas shares * Calendar-triggered messages * System-generated activity entries Each entry shows: * Source channel (e.g., #general) * Content preview * Timestamp (date & time) ## **Access the Outbox** 1. Open the **Proddy workspace**. 2. Click **Outbox** from the left sidebar. 3. The Outbox opens showing all sent messages and activities. ## **Viewing messages in Outbox** * Messages are grouped by **time periods** such as: * This Week * Earlier * Each item displays: * Channel name * Message or exported content preview * Date and time sent This makes it easy to audit or revisit previously sent information. ## **Filtering Outbox Messages** Use the filters at the top to refine what you see: * **All** – Shows all sent messages * **Channels** – Shows messages sent to channels * **Direct** – Shows messages sent via direct messages This helps you quickly find messages based on where they were sent. ## **Search messages in Outbox** 1. Use the **Search messages…** bar at the top. 2. Enter keywords related to: * Message content * Channel name * Export type The list updates in real time to show matching entries. ## **Export-related entries in Outbox** When you export a note or document: * An entry is automatically created in the Outbox * The export metadata (format, file name) is logged * Large exports may show encoded or raw content previews This helps users confirm exports were triggered successfully. ## **Why Outbox is useful** * Central history of sent content * Easy debugging for exports and automations * Transparency across chats, notes, canvas, and calendar * Helpful for audits and collaboration tracking
