Post reports configuration

Decide where, when and how your standup reports are posted

Written by Tasos Efkarpidis

Send to channel

Standup reports are posted by Geekbot to the channel(s) of your choice. Click the block to see the channels where Geekbot can post and feel free to pick as many as you like 😊

💡 Tip: If you use Slack, you can also include a private channel by following this guide.

Post at a Selected Time

This setting lets you choose the exact hour your reports reach the channel. Geekbot collects responses as they arrive and shares them in one go at your chosen time, giving your team a single, organized overview to read whenever they're ready.

Keep in mind that enabling this option automatically turns on Threaded replies, so the whole batch of reports stays grouped in one thread.

To set it up, click on the Post reports block, switch the toggle ON and then choose a time and a timezone.

Threaded Replies

Keep your Slack channels clutter-free with Geekbot's Threaded replies. When enabled, all Geekbot reports will be neatly compiled under a single thread in your chosen channel.

So instead of having multiple individual posts, you'll have a streamlined view of all Geekbot interactions in one place, ensuring important discussions don't get lost in the noise.

To enable/disable Threaded replies for your standups, click on the Post reports block and switch the toggle ON/OFF.

Anonymize Replies

If you want to run an anonymous survey, this option is for you. It ensures all responses in the channel and the dashboard are entirely anonymous. Simply switch the toggle ON to enable anonymized replies.

🚨 Important: This setting cannot be reverted.

Engagement Summary

A gentle way to remind teammates that haven't reported is to enable the engagement summary. Geekbot will send a summary that mentions who's reported, who hasn't, and who's out of office.
