This article covers best practices for participating in reviews.
Accessing reviews
There are a number of ways to access a review you have been assigned to.
You will receive an in-app and email notification if you have been tagged in a Review. You can open the Review directly from either of these notifications.
You can also select the review from the 'Reviews' track in your left sidebar.
Alternatively, navigate to the workspace the review was set up in, and select the review from the 'Workspace reviews' tracker.
Another option is to navigate directly to the file, or one of the files, being reviewed and select 'Reviews' option in the right sidebar.
Viewing review progress
You can view the progress of every review you have created or been assigned to directly from the home page by selecting the 'My Work' tab of your quick view section.
Alternatively, you can select the 'My Work' option on the left sidebar.
Overdue reviews are highlighted, and reviews are by default sorted by due date. You'll also see how many reviewers have submitted reviews, and the number of pieces of open feedback remain.
Contributing feedback in a review
Create Feedback items on the file(s) to contribute to the review. All feedback you create will automatically be saved to the review and shown in the Feedback panel in the right sidebar. You can also review any feedback left by other reviewers in this panel. Click on any feedback item within the feedback panel to expand its details.
There may be cases where another reviewer assigns a specific feedback item to you to review. If so, you will get a notification and you will see your initials attached to the feedback item.
Each feedback item has three tabs: Discussion, Feedback info and Feedback activity.
We recommend using the discussion tab for all communication related to the Feedback.
The info tab contains various fields that can be completed such as priority, due date and resolution. You may be responsible for completing these if you have been assigned to the feedback item,
The activity tab will track all activity that has happened on the feedback item.
Completing your review
When you are finished providing feedback, it is time to submit your review. To do so, click the Submit Review button in the top right corner. This signals to the review owner that you have finished giving feedback.
A confirmation modal appears providing a summary of the number of feedback items you created. In this modal you can add an optional comment for the review creator and choose to either:
request changes from the review creator.
or submit your approval of the design be selecting Approve.
