Create a thread from an existing message

In Glue, you can turn any message into a thread after it’s been sent. This is perfect for organizing the conversation if a message turns into a longer discussion, bringing new people or groups into a conversation, or maintaining focus by forking separate topics out of an existing thread.

Any Message in Glue can be turned into a Thread at any time:

• Group chat messages
• Direct messages (DMs)
• Messages in an existing thread

How It Works:

• The original message remains visible in the group chat, DM or thread, with a link to the new thread appearing below it.
• The new thread is given an auto-generated name, which you can update anytime to match the topic.
• The new thread will automatically include the same recipients - groups or people who the original message was addressed to. You can easily edit the recipients while you're creating the new thread to add or remove groups or people to keep the conversation relevant.
• The new thread will show the original message at the top as context, as well as where the message was originally shared. A blue arrow icon indicates that this is a forked thread created from a message.

Benefits of Turning Messages into Threads:

• Stay Organized: Keep conversations on track by separating off-topic or evolving discussions.
• Improve Focus: Shift deeper discussions into their own space without cluttering the original chat.
• Customize Participation: Add or remove participants in the thread to ensure the right people are involved.
