Activity Feed Overview

Created by David Micka, Modified on Mon, 9 Feb at 11:02 PM by Alsabana Sahubarali

Objective

The Outreach Activity Feed provides users with an efficient way to see action within the platform and can be configure to display specific content. 

Applies To

  • Outreach Users

Before You Begin

  • Outreach automatically filters out the bottom 1% to not skew metrics as one email delivered and opened will result in 100% open rate and skew the top performing sequences. 

Overview

The activity feed is available in the following locations within Outreach

  • The 360 Homepage 
  • Individual Prospects and Accounts
  • Individual Sequences
  • Individual Triggers
    • Note: The activity feed for triggers is not filterable 
  • Within the CRM Plugin
    • Note: External is not a filterable option for the CRM Plugin. 

Engagement Activity Bubble

The engagement activity bubble provides information on the history and intensity of engagement with a specific account. It displays a timeline of all key activities—such as emails, calls, meetings, and tasks—using colored bubbles that represent different types of interactions. Each bubble on the timeline corresponds to a day (or week/month, depending on your view), and the size of the bubble reflects the volume of activity on that date. Hovering over or clicking a bubble reveals more details about the specific activities that took place.

Using the Activity Bubble

The activity bubble provides a quick overview of account engagement. This lets users accomplish the following:

  • Instantly see which days had the most or least engagement with an account. Larger bubbles indicate higher activity, helping you spot periods of strong or weak outreach.
  • Drill Down into Specific Activities
    • Click or hover over a bubble to view a breakdown of all emails, calls, meetings, and tasks for that day.
      Review the details of each interaction, including who was involved and what was discussed.
  • Identify Engagement Patterns and Gaps
    • Spot trends, such as periods of high engagement or stretches with little to no activity.
      Use this insight to plan your next steps, ensuring consistent follow-up and avoiding missed opportunities.
  • Prepare for Meetings and Account Reviews
    • Before a call or meeting, use the timeline to quickly recap recent interactions and understand the account’s engagement history. Share insights with your team or leadership to inform strategy and next actions.
  • Filter and Customize Your View
    • Adjust the timeline to show activity by day, week, or month, depending on your preference.
      Filter by activity type to focus on the interactions that matter most to you.
