Ability to comment and/or create conversations about the data and insights in the rep

Description

The ability to start conversations and to comment on a project/report a team is creating. While preparing an analysis or when share results for people to consume another time the ability to start conversations would be a good addition. 

Use Case and Business Need

You are requested to prepare an analysis of your sales team and prepare an interactive DV report. While preparing it you notice some spikes and you need some confirmation from 2 different team members from the sales team. As you are working in a different timezone from them, you would start a conversation inside that specific project and the sales team member would be able to reply to that. The information would be tagged to the project. 

More details

Some of the market leaders' competitors utilize that in very nice ways, allowing and incentivizing the collaboration and improving ownership of the data. You manage and document all queries you may have while preparing the reports.

I also understand you have the ability to leave comments in the Narrate part of the report, but the functionality is very limited and it could be expanded. Ability to tag a user and this person to get a notification would be also nice.

Definitely second this - there's something similar to what you're requesting in OAX.

We plan on integrating OAC Analytics with OAX cards. Having the same comment functionality in both areas would be awesome, since this is a feature we will definitely utilize in the OAX area.

This is a really good idea, in line with the cool collaboration features in FAW and I am now seeing requests for this type of feature in the client proposal requests.

Please, if this is implemented, add a System Setting allowing admins to disable this feature.

We have MS-Teams, Slack, Jira and SharePoint for collaboration. Adding yet another place may add confusion. We could use a user-friendly way to add a link to a SharePoint/Jira/etc.

thanks.

We are working on a broad set of collaboration use cases that will cover this. We want to allow collaboration across the platform, so this is much larger than just a simple comment and as a result this is a pretty big dev effort .. but it is on the roadmap.
