Team chat
Direct messages between teammates on your workspace. Internal only — customers never see these threads.
Get started
-
Open the Team folder
Go to Messages → Team, or find team threads mixed into your main inbox at Messages.
-
Start a DM
Click Message teammate and pick someone on your roster. You can only message people on your workspace — not yourself.
Daily use
- Send and receive — same thread UI as customer SMS and form submissions.
- Read/unread — mark threads unread to come back to them later.
- Trash — move a thread to trash, restore it, or delete permanently. You cannot reply while a thread is in trash.
- Notifications — push alerts on iOS and optional email when a teammate messages you.
Who can use it
Any teammate on your workspace — owners, admins, and members — can send and receive team DMs. See Team permissions for how roles differ.
Good to know
Team chat is not a group channel — it is 1:1 only. For the best mobile experience, use the Pathline iOS app.
