# Comments and activity

Every record in Comind.work has a built-in conversation thread and a full activity history. Use comments to discuss work in context, and the activity feed to track every change.

## Comments[​](#comments "Direct link to Comments")

### Adding a comment[​](#adding-a-comment "Direct link to Adding a comment")

1. Open a record
2. Scroll to the **Comments** section at the bottom of the form
3. Type your comment in the rich text editor
4. Click **Save**

Comments support the rich text editor, including:

* Text formatting (bold, italic, lists, headings)
* File attachments
* Links

### Adding a comment during save[​](#adding-a-comment-during-save "Direct link to Adding a comment during save")

You can add a comment at the same time as saving changes to a record. When you click **Save**, use the comment field in the save dialog to explain what you changed and why.

### Comment notifications[​](#comment-notifications "Direct link to Comment notifications")

Followers of the record receive notifications about new comments. See [Collaboration](/user-guide/common-features/collaboration.md) for details on followers.

## Activity feed[​](#activity-feed "Direct link to Activity feed")

The activity feed shows a chronological log of everything that happened to a record:

* **Field changes** - which fields changed, old and new values
* **State changes** - actions fired (e.g., "Submitted", "Approved", "Closed")
* **Comments** - inline in the timeline
* **File attachments** - files added or removed
* **Assignment changes** - who was assigned or unassigned

Each entry shows the user who made the change and the exact timestamp.

## Version history[​](#version-history "Direct link to Version history")

Comind.work maintains a full audit trail with field-level diffs. For every change, you can see:

* Who made the change
* When it happened
* Exactly which fields changed (with before/after values)
* The action that was fired, if any

### Viewing history[​](#viewing-history "Direct link to Viewing history")

1. Open the record
2. Click the **History** tab or scroll to the history section
3. Browse changes chronologically

### Changeset rendering[​](#changeset-rendering "Direct link to Changeset rendering")

Each version shows a visual diff of changed fields. Text fields show inline diffs, lookup fields show the old and new values, and date fields show formatted before/after comparisons.

History is displayed as a section within the record form, below the field data and comments.
