Basic Investigation Tutorial

Prep for your review

⏰ Time required: 30 mins to 1 hour

You've had an incident; now it's time to use Jeli to make it easier to prepare for your incident review meeting. You'll review your Slack transcript to create a Narrative timeline of your incident, prepare Questions you want to ask during the meeting, and capture a preliminary set of Action Items. These three topics will make up the agenda of your review meeting.

🕵️
If you haven’t already, go to Slack to import your data into Jeli using the /jeli import command to import additional Slack channels.

Create a Narrative in the Narrative Builder

When you open your Opportunity in Jeli you may navigate to the “Narrative” tab under “Report”. Click “Edit Narrative” and start telling the story of your incident using the Markers:

  • Detection
  • Diagnosis
  • Repair
  • Key Moment

Add Narrative Marker Details

As you skim through the transcript, add additional information to explain the story more easily.

  • Add a summary to your marker to easily explain what is happening.
  • Add messages directly from your sources as Supporting Evidence to each marker.
  • Add notes to each marker to highlight what you want to learn more about (i.e. questions for the review meeting).

Use the People View to understand who was involved in the incident
