Communicating through monday.com will make it easier for you to revisit things in the future and ensure you don’t forget anything. In this article, we’ll break down step-by-step how to communicate with your team.
How to send a message to your team
To send a message to a team member, simply open the item you want to communicate with and use @mention followed by your message.
Your team member will receive an instant notification in the “Mentioned” tab in their notification center. They can also turn on their email notifications to receive an email notification.
The ability to communicate in context will save you from annoying email conversations. You can even see if your team member has read your message by hovering over the eye in the bottom right corner of the feed.

Mentioning multiple people at once
To make communication faster and easier, you can also mention everyone subscribed to an item, dashboard, workspace, or even your entire account with one click! Simply use the @mention symbol and then select “Everyone on this item/dashboard/workspace” or “Everyone on [your account name]”.
Doing so will notify all relevant people and lead them directly to this message!
Receiving notifications
Every time you’re mentioned in an update, you’ll be notified by your bell icon. You can also turn on your email notifications to get an email about it. To learn more about how notifications work, check out this article.
