Client requests

Ask your client for the things only they can give you: a logo file, a login, a decision, a sign-off. They answer in the portal, and you are told when they do.

The Requests from client card on a project's Delivery tab, listing open and fulfilled requests with their type and due date
Requests from client, at the bottom of the Delivery tab.

How to

  1. Open the project and choose the Delivery tab.
  2. In Requests from client, open Add a request.
  3. Under What do you need?, describe it in a few words, for example "Your logo as an SVG".
  4. Choose a Type and, if it helps, a Due date.
  5. Click Add request. It is saved as Open and appears in the client's portal under Needs your attention.
  6. Send your client the portal link, or mention the request in a client update. Adding a request does not email the client on its own.

Request types

The type decides what the client is asked for in the portal.

TypeThe client is asked for
FileA file upload.
LinkA web address.
ApprovalA written response.
DecisionA written response.
TextA written response.

Uploaded files follow the same rules as deliverable files: up to 25 MB, in a document or image format, stored privately.

Request

open → fulfilled

When the client answers

As soon as the client submits, the request becomes Fulfilled and leaves their "Needs your attention" list. On your side, what they sent appears under the request: a file to download, the link, or their note.

You get a "Client request fulfilled" notification, and a separate "Client uploaded a file" notification when they upload one. Both show in the bell and in Needs attention, and go by email or WhatsApp to whoever your notification settings name.

Closing a request yourself

If the client sent what you needed another way, by email for example, click Mark fulfilled on the request. It closes without a submission, and it still raises the "Client request fulfilled" notification.

To remove a request altogether, click its bin icon and confirm. Anything the client submitted against it is removed from the list too.

Approval or a deliverable? If you want the client to sign off something you made, use a deliverable set to Ready for review instead. Deliverable approvals record the approver's name, email and the date.
