Action Plan Progress Block

Written by Jan Niklas Wick

The Action Plan Progress Block helps you provide a clear, visual overview of onboarding or project progress. It syncs automatically with the action plan(s) in your space, so your team and your customer always stay aligned — without needing to manually update anything.

You can add one or multiple blocks to any page, change the title, and customize the progress level. No other content editing is required.


What the Block Shows

The block supports two views, depending on your workflow:

Single Action Plan

  • Displays progress across milestones within one selected Action Plan.

  • Ideal for linear setups (e.g., onboarding steps or project phases).

  • Lets you show progress per milestone, with upcoming tasks grouped underneath.

Multiple Action Plans

  • Displays multiple entire Action Plans in a single block.

  • Useful for summarizing multiple workstreams or stakeholder-specific plans.

  • Each Action Plan shows its overall progress, with a popover of upcoming tasks (max 3 per plan).

You can switch between both views via the sidebar — changes take effect immediately in your space preview.


How to Add and Configure the Block

  1. Open your template or space.

  2. Click + Add Block and select Progress from the block picker (in section 'Collaboration').

  3. Use the editor sidebar to configure:

    • Whether the block shows a Single or Multiple Action Plans

    • Select which Action Plan to show (Single) or which Action Plan(s) to include (Multiple)


Controlling What’s Displayed

By default, hidden Action Plans and hidden milestones are excluded. In the block sidebar’s Settings tab, you can change this:

  • Show hidden Action Plans: Include selected plans that are hidden, including plans on hidden pages. They appear as non-interactive items.

  • Show hidden Milestones: Include hidden milestones within a displayed plan. This is available in Single Action Plan mode only. In Multiple Action Plans mode, hidden milestones are always excluded from progress.

Both settings are off by default. Action Plans on internal pages can only be linked to a Progress block that is also on an internal page.

This helps you handle cases where:

  • Action Plans are revealed sequentially during onboarding

  • OR different Action Plans exist for different customer types via Content Automation


Interaction & Display Logic

  • Task progress updates automatically as users complete tasks in the linked Action Plan blocks.

  • Popovers show up to 3 upcoming tasks per plan, grouped by milestone (if available).

  • The layout is consistent with your existing action plans — users see progress at a glance without drilling into the plan.


Common Use Cases

  • Onboarding Dashboard: Add the block to the first page of a space to give customers a clear overview of where things stand.

  • Project Overview: Place the block above your detailed Action Plan to provide a quick summary before diving into specifics.
