In the picture, a customer success lead at ACME has two challenges. They sent one to a colleague in support on 12 October, who hasn’t taken it yet. A sales engineer sent them the other before a customer’s security call, and both of them finished it.

  4. Number of cards: 5, 10 or 20.

Challenge someone with Add open: a Find a track, a region or a spot box; Your tracks with Security questionnaires (5 spots · 12 cards) and Sign-in and access (9 spots · 21 cards); Regions with Sign-in, At a customer and Customers, each with its spots and cards; and Spots below.Challenge someone with Add open: a Find a track, a region or a spot box; Your tracks with Security questionnaires (5 spots · 12 cards) and Sign-in and access (9 spots · 21 cards); Regions with Sign-in, At a customer and Customers, each with its spots and cards; and Spots below.

What you add appears as a chip. Click its × to take it off. Under the chips, a line shows how many cards there are to draw from. The challenge uses cards that already exist, so it starts at once. You each answer the same cards on your own, and once you’ve both finished, you each see the other’s answers.

You get at most one existing card per fact, spread across as many spots as possible. If there aren’t that many cards, the challenge has fewer. Written cards come into a challenge only when your organisation has a model set up to check them.

Send challenge sends it and opens it, so you can answer its cards straight away. The person you challenged gets a task in their Inbox with Take, which opens their challenges.
