Example
Example If you enable feed updates for related records on accounts, the account feed includes:
  • Feed updates for all activity on the account
  • Feed updates announcing new related records

Records must be created via object-specific actions, from related lists on the record itself, or directly associated with the related record to appear in its Chatter feed. For example, if a task is created via a global action and isn't directly associated with a parent record via the Related To or Name fields, the task doesn't appear in the related record 's feed even if you update it and relate it to records afterward.

Enabling All Related Objects doesn’t retroactively add related records to feeds. Only newly created records that are related to the enabled object are included in its Chatter feed.
