About Q&A
Q&A is an essential part of the data room, allowing secure communication between involved parties right inside your project.
We offer a comprehensive built-in Q&A functionality that can be set up according to the specific workflow requirements. Data room administrators decide who can ask and answer the questions, collaborate internally in Q&A, and manage all communication in general.
Activating Q&A
Before proceeding to the Q&A setup and activation, make sure you have invited users to your project, as the Q&A participants can be selected only from the existing data room users.
Once the users are invited to your project, you may proceed to setting up your Q&A workflow.
Q&A participants are divided into the question and answer sides, each having different Q&A roles that can be selected according to your workflow preferences.

Collaborating in Q&A
As soon as the Q&A is activated, all selected users get access to it. Depending on users’ Q&A roles, they can:
Import questions in bulk on behalf of the question team.
Create FAQ to avoid answering repetitive questions.
Navigate to the relevant question threads.
Export Q&A discussions in the excel spreadsheet for internal purposes.
Get notifications about new Q&A activity or disable them if needed.
The Q&A settings can be adjusted at any time after activating Q&A: add or remove Q&A users, change their roles, edit question teams, or other workflow settings.
When the project comes to the final stage, you can also order a flash drive archive containing selected Q&A activity only.
