What Armbrain takes from Missive

Armbrain reads one Missive team inbox that you choose.

  • New and changed conversations in that team inbox.
  • Each conversation's subject, senders and readable message text.
  • The decisions, requests and commitments in those conversations, saved in that client's mind.
Left alone

The first sync starts with the 500 most recent conversations. Older history is not pulled in.
