What it reads
Link the Plaky boards each Unblockd project needs. You pick which items to bring in, up to 50 at a time, and each one becomes a task under a deliverable with a link back to Plaky.
In Plaky
Items; Stuck or Blocked flags a blocker.
How it stays current
Unblockd reads your linked boards again when someone opens a project’s Sources tab and the last read is more than 10 minutes old, whenever you press Sync now, and once a day.
How you connect
An admin pastes the api key from Plaky once for the whole workspace. Unblockd checks it with Plaky before saving anything. Unblockd reads your work in Plaky and leaves it as it is. The key is encrypted with AES-256-GCM before it’s stored.
What your sponsor sees
Your sponsor sees each deliverable’s progress. The tasks you bring in, and any blocker they flag, stay with your team until someone chooses to share them.
How teams use it
What happens to Plaky work once it’s connected, from the first link to your sponsor’s page.
- Plan in Plaky, report from UnblockdLink the Plaky board for a project and bring its items in under the deliverables they serve, up to 50 at a time. Each task keeps a link back to Plaky, and its status follows Plaky from then on.
- Stuck work becomes an askIn Plaky, Stuck or Blocked flags a blocker. Unblockd opens it for your team only and alerts your team’s chat channels if you’ve connected any. Someone confirms it and turns it into an ask for the sponsor: a decision with options, or a request for help.
- Acceptance stays with your teamA task marked done in Plaky finishes here too, unless it still needs a sign-off. The deliverable itself is accepted only once its evidence is attached, and your sponsor is emailed only when a person on your team accepts it.
- New items arrive on their own, if you wantAn admin can turn on automatic import, so new open items in a linked board arrive as tasks under the deliverable chosen for it, up to 25 per sync.
