Using Weaver
Events
An event connects emails, progress, to-dos, and files for an ongoing project. Learn how to review, manage, and act on that context.
What is an event?
An event is Weaver's organizing unit for an ongoing project, plan, or topic. It brings related emails, progress, to-dos, and supporting material together, even when they come from different threads and people.
For example, a product launch can include creative feedback, an agency's schedule, and a report from your team. Those conversations can belong to the same event. The event may stay active for weeks; it isn't just a calendar appointment.
Open the event to catch up on the work, check the original messages, and decide what to do next.
See the full picture
When a project crosses email threads, it can be hard to tell whether a decision is final or someone is still waiting for you. The event gives those conversations a shared context.
On a product launch, you might check what changed in the channel schedule, see an open creative approval, and ask Chat to summarize the decisions waiting on you. Read the linked sources when you need to verify a date or exact wording.
Weaver creates events from email worth following. Not every imported email becomes an event. You can also gather a topic yourself when you want a different view of the work.
What lives in an event?
Updates: progress and changes drawn from related messages.
Sources: original email conversations you can open to verify the details.
To-dos: next steps associated with the event, with dates and plans when available.
Files and other material: related attachments and work created for the event.
Scheduled tasks: recurring checks and their results.
Progress presents the stages of the work, their updates, related to-dos, and sources. Library gathers supporting material by category, including To-dos, Sources, Files, Deliverables, and Scheduled when available. Files are attachments; Deliverables are work created for the event. Empty categories are omitted, so two events may have different Library options.
Work from the event
Chat uses the event you're viewing as context. Ask a specific question, request a summary, or describe the reply you want to write.
Summarize the open decisions for this launch and list what needs my response.
If a to-do has an available plan, review it and choose Run plan to start. Read the intended steps before starting. Review drafts and any required approval as part of the workflow.
Manage event status
Snooze: set the event aside until a chosen time or new activity.
Caught up: indicate that you're up to date for now. New activity can bring the event back to your attention.
Ignore: remove the event from the feed. To bring it back, open Settings / Ignored and restore it.
These controls manage what you see in Weaver. They aren't email deletion controls.
Create an event or report a problem
To start from an imported email, open Sources and choose Add event on an unlinked message. The email becomes a reference in Chat; explain what the event should cover.
Gather my emails about the product launch campaign into one event, including creative approvals and the channel schedule.
If the summary, importance, or grouping looks wrong, open the event's More menu and use its feedback option. Point to the affected email and describe the expected result so the issue can be understood in context.
