Context & @mentions
Inject workflows, files, knowledge bases, and tables into Chat with @mentions, file attachments, and persistent memory.
Chat can pull rich context into any message. Use @ in the message box to pick from the available context types, attach files directly, or ask Chat to remember things for next time.
@mention types
Type @ in the message box to open the mention picker and search across your workspace resources. Four resource types are supported:
| Mention | What it injects |
|---|---|
| Workflow | The workflow's name, description, and block list. |
| File | A content preview of a file from your workspace storage. |
| Knowledge base | The knowledge base name, description, and document count. |
| Table | The table's column schema and row count. |
Type @ and start typing a name to search across workflows, files, knowledge bases, and tables at once.
Example — referencing a workflow:
@ [Lead Gen] What does this workflow do and how can I extend it to also send an email?
Example — querying a data table:
@ [Customer Orders] How many orders were placed last week?
File attachments
Drag a file onto the Chat window or click the paperclip icon. Supported types include PDF, plain text, Markdown, CSV, and common document formats.
Each file you attach is automatically indexed into the per-conversation private knowledge base for that conversation. Chat queries this KB when relevant to your follow-up messages — you don't need to re-attach the file later in the same conversation.
The private KB is scoped to one conversation and is not visible to other users or other conversations.
Automatic recall from past conversations
Chat maintains a semantic index of your conversation history. When you start a new conversation, it automatically surfaces relevant messages from past conversations as background context — you'll see a note when past context is being used.
You can also search your history explicitly with the Search your conversations… bar at the top of the Chat sidebar.
Persistent memory
Chat has a per-user, per-org memory store that carries across conversations:
- Ask Chat to remember something: "Remember that our deployment process requires two approvals."
- Ask Chat to recall something: "What did I tell you about our deployment process?"
- Ask Chat to forget something: "Forget what I told you about our deployment process."
Memory is scoped to you within your org — other members cannot read your memory. If you revoke Chat consent (see Administration), your conversation embeddings are removed.
Memory is most useful for facts that are true across many conversations: team conventions, preferences, recurring project context. For one-off context, prefer file attachments or searching your conversation history.
