New Idea

Insert table in 360 Timeline Activities

It would be great to be able to either insert or copy and paste tables into the logged Activities for Timeline 360. If I copy paste at the moment, it pastes as text and loses all table layout

    Just to add an example scenario:
    Details are logged into a spread sheet showing the product, additional features, associated dates, and related actions.

    When logging a call/meeting on Timeline, it would be useful to copy/paste this info in the same table format as a reference point, rather than retyping. It also keeps the information visually clearer if we can use a table.

    Our team has the same request.  They often create on-site agendas in tables and would like Timeline to support tables, charts, pictures, etc.

    @nitisha_rathi : Is there an update on this feature ?

    Seems like we are also running into the same issue of copy/pasting and loosing table format.

    Is there a workaround available ?

    So, the teams who are running into issues of loosing table format while copying and pasting. How are you able to workaround it ? Have you advised your teams to re-type the meeting notes rather than copying and pasting.

    I am also interested in this topic. We would love to have the option of using tables at the timeline and also in Success Plans.

    I imagine this feature quite similar to what confluence offers. This one would increase the value of Gainsight heavily. We have several different tables that we would like to store in Gainsight (timeline and success plans). We even have colleagues who not really use Gainsight because of the missing tables option.

    @smitamohapatra Can you please check if this is something which will be established soon? We really would love to see this feature!

    My team is using email to timeline (bcc copy to timeline) instead of logging activities correctly (i.e. using meeting activity type) because it allows a table to be added.  The inability to add a table from the activity creation is forcing bad practices on our team.  I’d like to see a way to create or past a table to timeline activities.
