Chat (Available Only for Staff)
In Chat, you can have private one-on-one or group conversations that are not in the public team channel.
Chat provides the ability to message other Staff directly without being in a specific Team. When an item is only required to be collaborated on between two single staff, or if an item wants to be discussed directly with another Staff Member Chat can provide this instance.
Students are unable to use this feature due to privacy reasons
