Hi,
Comment thread is a good feature and this post is also very good (New: Comment Thread) BUT my use case is like this.

I have a table of items say orders. on each order there can be some discussion on between different team member regarding that specific order. I want to add modal on row selection there I will place the comment thread.

My questions is how do I save this conversions to database ? or how do I link each communication per order seperately , currently these messages are global (?) , but I need seperate discussion thread per item.

Any suggestion is welcomed.

Thanks

Hi there @mpmohi,

The thread component has the Thread ID field which you can use to separate discussion threads per item, I have a tutorial on this here:

Hope it helps, let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks , this is what I was looking. By the way do you know the lifecycle of the retool stored comments. I mean what happens if there's lot of reply / big replies

Also for how long these will be saved ? how they impact my account ( storage use / db use etc )
