Opportunities Collaboration Tab

If you enable Kona Business integration, you can use the Collaboration tab to share information and collaborate with team members through conversations related to the current opportunities. This allows for greater communication and increased productivity.

When you start a conversation on the Collaboration tab, a Kona space is created for the respective project or opportunity record. A space is a place where you can collaborate on tasks, events, and files, and where you can also conduct conversations with team members. Team members will only be able to see spaces that you have in common with them.
