Module guide
Board
Kanban with swimlanes that your team defines.
Overview
The board shows your tasks as cards across customizable columns. Columns are defined for your workspace in Settings > Board columns. Drag a card to change its status; the change is recorded in the audit log and appears on every open screen in real time.
Highlights
The capabilities worth knowing before you dive in.
Important to know
Limits, permissions, and sharp edges to keep in mind.
- Deleting a column that still holds tasks returns 409 and tells you how many tasks to move first. Every task that is not in the Trash counts, including finished and archived ones.
- Custom column keys are lowercase and stable. Renaming a column changes only its display label.
How to use it
The primary workflow, start to finish.
- Open Settings > Board columns to customize your lanes.
- Drag a card to a new lane on the board to change its status.
- Double-click a card to open its detail drawer without leaving the board.
FAQ
- Can I have per-project boards?
- Yes. Open a project and use its boards. This workspace board uses the columns defined once for the whole workspace in Settings, then Board columns.
- Where do WIP limits live?
- On the board views inside a project, not on this workspace board. Edit the limit in a column header. The header then shows the count against the limit, and a column over its limit is marked as such. The limit is stored in your browser, so teammates and your other devices do not see it, and it does not stop a card from being dragged in.
- Why can I not delete a board column?
- The column still holds tasks. The refusal is a 409 and it tells you how many tasks to move first. Every task in the column that is not in the Trash counts, finished and archived ones included, so nothing is stranded in a column that has gone.
