Overview
The Board view displays your items as cards arranged in columns, following the Kanban methodology. Each column represents a status or category, and you can drag cards between columns to update their status.Layout
The board view is organized as follows:- Groups appear as horizontal swimlanes (e.g., “Frontend”, “Backend”)
- Columns represent the status values of a chosen column (e.g., “To Do”, “In Progress”, “Done”)
- Cards represent individual items, showing key field values at a glance
Drag and Drop
Drag cards between columns to change their status. The underlying field value is updated automatically. You can also:- Reorder cards within a column by dragging up or down
- Move cards between groups by dragging to a different swimlane
- Multi-select cards by holding
Cmd/Ctrland clicking, then drag them all at once
Card Appearance
Each card shows a preview of the item’s key fields. You can customize what appears on cards:Select Card Fields
Choose which columns to display on cards. Common choices include Priority, Due Date, Assignee, and Tags.
Cover Images
If your items have a File column, you can enable cover images on cards. The first image in the file column will be displayed as a banner at the top of the card.Column Management
- Add a column by clicking + Add Status on the right side of the board
- Rename a column by double-clicking its header
- Reorder columns by dragging the column header left or right
- Set column limits (WIP limits) to cap the number of cards allowed in a column
WIP (Work In Progress) limits help teams follow lean principles by preventing overloading any single stage. When a column reaches its limit, its header turns orange as a visual warning.
