Messages

TTA Messages serves as the hub for communicating with your TTA project team members. It offers a convenient platform to message team members about anything related to your job.

Here’s how to initiate a conversation, along with some starting tips!

Messages Tab

  • The Messages feature is available on all hired jobs. Go to the Job Center, then click on the In Progress tab and select a job. Next, click on the blue Messages icon located on the top of the main hired jobs page.
    • Note: Not all jobs will automatically have Messages enabled as we roll out this new and exciting feature. Keep an eye out on upcoming jobs for this!
  • The Messages window will open, and members of the project team will automatically be listed as members of the General channel. This will be the general channel for the project team, making it easy to communicate with everyone working on the job.
