# Set Up Team Chat in Planio

Team Chat lets you quickly make decisions together with your team in real time from your phone or computer.

You'll also have a real-time feed of the latest updates on your project on any device, and you'll be able to ping any team member when you need to talk to them.

## How Can You Use Team Chat?

  - You can **chat with your team members** directly inside Planio, **on desktop clients** or **on your mobile** about a project.

  - You can **discuss an issue in chat**, and your chat will be easily accessible from that issue, so you’ll have all the discussion around the issue in one place.

  - You can **ping people by writing their name**, so you can quickly ask them a question. They’ll get a notification, so they’ll know about it straight away.

  - You can **search the entire chat log** using search. Everybody can simply look up what has been said on a subject and absent people can catch up on past chats easily. 

  - You'll see **chat notifications on updates** made within Planio.

## Activate Planio Chat and Get Your Planio Chat Credentials

Log into your Planio account and select the project for which you want to enable team chat.

Go to **Apps** in the navigation bar and make sure **Team Chat** is installed. It’s an optional extra, so you might have to upgrade to use it.

You'll also find **Chat Logs** in the navigation bar. Click on it, and you’ll see a history of all chat messages. On the right, you’ll see a sidebar with chat credentials. You’ll have to enter your account password to see the **Server password**.
