Use Chatline

Daily digest

One message a day per channel: what changed, what is overdue and what is due soon. Good for stand-ups and for channels that should not get every update.

A daily digest with updated, overdue and due-soon issues

Turn it on

  1. On the Chatline settings page click Edit on the channel.

  2. Under Daily digest tick Post a daily digest.

  3. Choose the hour and the time zone of the team. Weekdays only is on by default.

  4. Click Save changes. The channel card shows Daily digest at 09:00 Europe/Berlin, weekdays.

A digest-only channel is fine: untick every change under Post when and keep the digest.

What is in it

  • Updated in the last 24 hours: issues that changed, newest first.
  • Overdue: unfinished issues whose due date has passed.
  • Due today or tomorrow: unfinished issues due soon.

Each list shows up to eight issues with a link, and how many more there are. Only issues that match the channel's JQL filter are included, and issues with a security level are left out when that option is on. On a day with nothing to report, nothing is posted.

When it arrives

Chatline checks every five minutes, so the digest arrives within the first few minutes of the chosen hour, once a day. Daylight saving time is followed by the chosen time zone.
