Video walkthrough: Filter and resolve comments on a shared PDF link

This video shows how a DocKosha user can review comments left on a shared PDF link, filter them by link, jump to the exact spot in the PDF, reply, and then resolve (close) a comment thread.

Step-by-step (what happens in the video)

Step 1 — Start the walkthrough

• The video opens with a title screen: “Filter and resolve comments on a shared PDF link”.
• The user proceeds into the product.

Step 2 — Open a PDF inside DocKosha

• Inside DocKosha, a PDF is already open (example file: QBR_Adoption_Report - Q1.pdf).
• You can see the main PDF viewer in the center.

Step 3 — Go to the Comments tab

• In the top-right area, there are tabs like Document, Comments, Share, Analytics, and Audit log.
• The user clicks Comments.
• A message appears briefly: “Loading comments…” (meaning the system is fetching comment threads for this PDF).

Step 4 — Use the link filter (show comments for specific share links)

• A Comments sidebar opens on the right.
• At the top of that sidebar there is a filter dropdown (example: All links).
• The user opens the dropdown and selects which link(s) they want to view comments for (example shown: Public link).
• Result: the comment list updates so you only see comments related to the selected link(s).

Step 5 — Browse comment threads (list view)

• In the right sidebar, you now see a list of comment threads.
• Each thread shows:
  • The link type (example: Public link),
  • The comment anchor/keyword (example: engaged room, questionnaires),
  • A timestamp.

Step 6 — Click a thread to see where it is in the PDF

• The user clicks a thread (example: “questionnaires”) in the sidebar.
• DocKosha highlights the matching word/area inside the PDF (yellow highlight), so you can immediately see what the comment is about.

Step 7 — Jump from the PDF highlight to the discussion

• The video points out that the highlighted text in the PDF is clickable.
• The user clicks the highlighted “questionnaires” text in the PDF to jump directly to the related discussion thread.

Step 8 — View the full thread (thread view)

• After clicking, the sidebar switches into a detailed thread view.
• You can see:
  • The thread title/anchor (example: “questionnaires”),
  • Who commented (example email shown: viewer@example.com),
  • Which link it came from (example: Public link),
  • The comment history (example comment shown: “Correct”),
  • A Reply text box and Send button,
  • A Resolve button.

Step 9 — Reply to the comment

• The user clicks in the reply box, types a short reply (example: “Yo!”), and clicks Send.
• A confirmation toast appears at the top: “Reply sent”.
• The new reply appears in the thread history.

Step 10 — Resolve the thread (mark it as done)

• The user clicks Resolve.
• The thread is now marked Resolved.
• The UI shows options like:
  • Reopen (if the conversation needs to continue later),
  • View thread (to re-open the thread details),
  • A Resolved status label.

What a normal user should take away

• Comments are tied to share links, so filtering by link helps you avoid mixing feedback from different audiences.
• Clicking a comment thread highlights the exact spot in the PDF.
• Clicking the highlighted spot in the PDF jumps you straight into the discussion.
• You can reply directly inside the thread, and then Resolve when you’re done.
• If needed, you can Reopen a resolved thread later.
