Follow Work in the Activity Tab
The Activity tab sits next to Chat in the Canvas chat panel. It lists the work happening across the whole canvas, such as images still generating and changes made to items, so you can see what’s running and find it on the board.
Before you start
- Open Canvas chat with the Gavana logo in the lower-right corner of the canvas. You don’t need a connected computer to use the Activity tab.
The whole flow
Watch it once, or click a step under the replay to jump to it.
2 stepsSee what is running on this canvas and find it
Open the Activity tab
Click Activity at the top of the chat. A number next to it counts the work that’s still running. The tab says Work across this Canvas. Select an item to find it. and lists each item:
- A spinner for work that’s still running, with a line such as Working or Queued.
- A check mark for work that’s finished (Complete).
- A warning sign for work that failed, with what went wrong.
Running work comes first, then the most recent.
Find an item
Click an item to find it on the board. Items whose node is no longer on the canvas can’t be selected.
If nothing has happened on the canvas yet, the tab says No Canvas activity yet.
Good to know
- Chat and Activity keep their own scroll positions. Switching tabs keeps your draft message and attachments.
- When the chat is collapsed, a number on the Gavana logo shows how much work is running, including a reply the agent is still writing.
- Approvals and the agent’s replies stay in the Chat tab, under the message they belong to.
