Action Performed:

1. Login to NewDot
2. Create Task
3. Assign the Task to another user
4. Mark as Done
5. Repeat steps 2 and 3 several times
6. Observe task chats are displayed in the bottom of LHN
7. Logout
8. Login
9. Observe they disappear

Expected Result:

I assume that Task chats should not be created after step 2 like it is displayed on PR demo video.

If Task/chat creation is valid then they should disappear from LHN after completed and only show in the chat thread.
If Tasks should stay on LHN, then they should not disappear after logout / login

Actual Result:

Chat appear in LHN after task creation. After marking it completed, they move down in LHN.
After logout/login chat disappear from LHN and can only be found when going to the chat with the user.

Workaround:

unknown

I can reproduce this and I do think something odd is happening - either tasks need to not show once completed in the LHN or they need to always show.

Found related GH - #18510

cc @thienlnam do you think this is something related to the ^ job?

[thienlnam]

Yeah this is expected - we should be showing tasks in the LHN now! We have another issue to fix fetching the tasks in the LHN though
