Daily update is a feature that lets users receive notifications about updates to your Action on a regular schedule. These notifications appear as Assistant prompts on their device. If you design your daily update well, it can help users stay engaged with your Action.
The daily update is a real-time feedback loop that allows teams to quickly check in and see how things are going. The major benefits of this type of communication are that it encourages everyone to take quick actions, ask for help when needed, and ensure they’re on track towards their goals.
During a weekly update, each team member writes a brief recap of their plans, progress and problems for the week. This is then shared with the entire team through written emails or tools like Weekly Update. The major benefits of this type of communication is that it provides meaningful reflection feedback-loops. It can be hard to keep up with all the information coming in through email, so weekly updates allow the team to focus on important issues and ensure they are moving in the right direction.
In order to enable daily update for your Action, you’ll need to create a daily update intent and configure it as part of one of your existing intents. Then, you can offer users a registration prompt to subscribe to daily updates. This can be offered mid-conversation or as a suggestion chip when the user exits your Action successfully.
