Using Groupthink Documents

Groupthink offers a simple way to collaborate on documents with your team so you'll have a single source of truth when it comes to how work gets done.

Documents are also used to train your Groupthink Assistant and AI Coworkers.

Using Documents

Create a Document

You can create an unlimited number of documents within Groupthink.

  1. Go to "Documents" in the sidebar navigation
  2. Click the "+ New Document" button in the upper right corner
  3. To rename your document, click the newly created "New Document" in the list to open it
  4. Once you're in the document, you can highlight and replace the "New Document" title with different text

Edit a Document

To edit a document, simply start to type text in the body.

Formatting a Document

We don't currently support WYSIWYG editing, but you can use standard markdown syntax to add formatting.

Share a Document

By default, the permissions of the documents you create are scoped to individuals who you explicitly invite to view them via email address.

To share a document:

  1. Open the document you want to share
  2. Click the "Share" button at the top of the document
  3. Select the access level (Options: Anyone with the link, Anyone in the organization, Specific Individuals only)
  4. Add anyone you want to invite directly by adding their email address and clicking "Invite All" to send invites
  5. Modify permissions for individuals (Options: Viewer, Editor)

Making a Document Private

After you click "Share" on a Document, you immediately have the option to make a document private.

Toggling this feature on for a document will make it so that only the document owner (you) are able to make changes to permissions and invite new people.

Changing the Owner of a Document

This is not currently supported (known issue).

Using Folders

Create a Folder

  1. Click Documents in the left hand navigation
  2. Under the "Documents" headline you'll see My Documents and a horizontal bar, click the "+ Folder" button to create a new folder
  3. Give your new folder a name in the modal that pops up

Add Documents to Folders

Documents can live in multiple folders at the same time, allowing you to create multiple information hierarchies for different purposes

  1. Open the document you want to add to a folder
  2. Click on the horizontal three dot icon to the right of the Share button
  3. Select "Add to Folder" from the dropdown menu
  4. Select the name of the folder you want to add it to

Remove a Document from a Folder

Documents can be removed from folders without deleting the document itself

  1. From the main folder view, hover over your document and click on the three dots to the right of the document you want to remove
  2. Select "Remove from Folder" from the dropdown menu

Delete a Folder

  1. Click on the folder you want to delete
  2. Click the three horizontal dots to the right of the folder name
  3. Select "Delete Folder" from the menu
  4. CAUTION: There is currently no confirmation, and folder deletions can't be reversed without contacting support
