Follow or Unfollow a Conversation

Objective

How to follow or unfollow a conversation in Procore.

Background

When you follow a conversation in Procore, all messages within that conversation can be easily viewed and accessed in the Conversations tool within your account. If a conversation is not relevant to you, you can unfollow it so that it is no longer shown in your list of conversations.

It is important to note that following a conversation does not determine whether you will receive notifications when there is new activity on that conversation. However, mentioning a user in a conversation automatically makes them a follower of the conversation to ensure they see notifications in the Conversations tool. See Mention a User in a Conversation.

Things to Consider

Required User Permissions:
- 'Read Only' or higher level permissions to the relevant tool.
  Note: If an item is marked as Private, you must have permission to view that item.
Additional Information:
- Only conversations related to items can be followed or unfollowed.
- Certain users are automatically added as followers of a conversation, depending on the tool and item. See How does someone become a 'Follower' of a conversation in Procore?
- You can see who is following a conversation by clicking the Followers icon on the conversation.
