Similar to User Subtasks or System Subtasks, Automated Comments will send public comments to data subjects when advancing to a specified workflow stage. This allows request approvers to send targeted messaging for unique workflow stages while eliminating the need to configure a system subtask that launches an integration for notification.
Note
If your automated comment is not on a stage that is set to auto-advance, you will need to refresh the Data Subject Request Details screen to display the comment in the Activity tab.
