Nimble Buddy is your AI assistant inside Nimble. Ask it questions in plain language to learn how to use the product and to find information about your work — all from a single chat, without leaving the page you are on.
Important: Nimble Buddy for a newly created project card type or menu works only after the nightly adapter has run. It retains chat log information for the last 2 hours only.
Opening Nimble Buddy
Click the Nimble Buddy icon in the left navigation panel. The chat opens with a greeting — “What would you like to do today?” — along with a few suggestions to help you get started.
What You Can Ask Nimble Buddy
Type your question in the Message Nimble Buddy box using everyday language — there is no special syntax to learn.
Learn how to use Nimble and get help
Ask “how to” questions and Nimble Buddy explains the steps and points you to the right place — for example, “How to invite users to a project?”, “How to create a project?”, “How to log time on a to-do of a card?”, or “How to apply filters using Advanced Filters?”. It replies with clear, step-by-step guidance.
Find information about your work
Ask about the workitems that need your attention and Nimble Buddy retrieves the details for you — for example, “What are my priority tasks across all projects?”, “Which cards require immediate attention?”, or “Is anything due today?”.
Starting a New Chat and Viewing History
Select Start New Chat to begin a fresh conversation at any time, and History to revisit your earlier conversations. Nimble Buddy retains your chat history for the last 2 hours.
