Problem This Solves

Express team sentiment by searching and attaching animated Tenor GIFs to retrospective cards.

When to Use This

Ensure Enable GIFs is switched ON under Board Settings > Features.

Prerequisites

  • Ensure Enable GIFs is switched ON under Board Settings > Features.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Verify Board Setting: A facilitator confirms in Settings > Features that the toggle Enable GIFs (Members can add GIFs to cards using Tenor search) is active.
  2. Open Card Editor: Click + Add card in any column or edit an existing reflection card.
  3. Click GIF Search: Select the GIF option inside the card editor to launch the integrated Tenor search popup.
  4. Search Reaction: Type a keyword (e.g., celebrate, ship it, confused, coffee) and browse animated suggestions.
  5. Attach and Save: Click on the desired GIF to embed it directly into the feedback card alongside your text.

Expected Outcome

Cards feature engaging animated visuals that help teams express sprint moods, celebrate wins, and reduce tension during serious retrospective reviews.

Troubleshooting & Realistic Tips

  • If the GIF search option is missing from the card editor, the board Owner has toggled Enable GIFs off in Board Settings > Features. Ask an Owner to re-enable it.
