Immutable Comments (No Editing Allowed)
N
Nune Minasyan
I would like to request a feature that allows workspace admins to make comments immutable—meaning, once a comment is posted, it cannot be edited or deleted by anyone (including the original author) after a short window. This would help ensure the integrity of discussions, provide a clear audit trail, and prevent any confusion or disputes about what was originally said.
Key Points:
Option for admins to make all comments immutable in specific spaces, folders, lists, or the entire workspace.
If enabled, users can only edit their own comments within the first 20 minutes after posting. After this window, comments become completely locked and cannot be edited or deleted.
Ideally, an audit log should record any edits made within the allowed window, including who edited and when.
Use Case:
This feature is important for regulated industries, legal documentation, or any workflow where the original wording of comments must be preserved for compliance or accountability, while still allowing users to quickly correct mistakes right after posting.

Hey guys!
I don't know if this suggestion already exists, but I think it would be interesting for the administrator to set a maximum time for editing comments.
It would be a similar functionality to what exists on Whatsapp in which it is possible to edit for a while and then it remains locked.
This would give more credibility to the comments records.

thank you for the suggestion. It's not on top of our roadmap right now, but I agree that it's a valuable feature and that we should add it.
