What is an Item?

An item is a single row in your board — it could represent a task, issue, feature, bug, customer request, or anything else. Each item has a name and values for each column on the board.

Creating Items

There are several ways to create new items:
Click the + New Item row at the bottom of any group and start typing. Press Enter to create the item.

The Item Detail Panel

Click on any item name to open the detail panel. This full-width panel shows:
  • Title — editable item name at the top
  • Field values — all column values in an organized layout
  • Description — a rich text editor for detailed notes, checklists, and embedded content
  • Activity log — a timeline of all changes made to the item
  • Comments — threaded discussion with @mentions
  • Sub-items — nested child items for breaking down work
  • Files — attached documents, images, and links
Press Escape to close the detail panel and return to the board view.

Editing Items

Inline Editing

In Table view, click any cell to edit its value directly. In Board view, click a field on the card.

Batch Editing

Select multiple items (hold Cmd / Ctrl and click) and use the batch action bar that appears at the bottom of the screen to update fields for all selected items at once.

Sub-Items

Break complex items into smaller pieces using sub-items:
1

Open Item Detail

Click on an item to open the detail panel.
2

Add Sub-Item

Click + Add Sub-Item in the sub-items section. Sub-items inherit the parent’s columns.
3

Track Progress

The parent item automatically shows a progress indicator based on the completion status of its sub-items.

Moving Items

Within a Board

  • Drag and drop items between groups in any view
  • Right-click > Move to Group for precise control
  • Cut and Paste — use Cmd+X and Cmd+V to move items

Between Boards

  • Right-click > Move to Board to move an item to a different board within the same project
  • Right-click > Copy to Board to duplicate an item to another board
  • Items moved between boards will map columns by name. Unmatched columns will be empty.

Archiving and Deleting

Archive items to remove them from the active view without deleting them. Archived items can be restored at any time from Board Menu > Archived Items.
Delete items permanently. Deleted items are moved to the Trash and can be recovered within 30 days. After 30 days, they are permanently removed.
Deleting a parent item will also delete all its sub-items. Archive the parent if you want to keep the sub-items recoverable.

Item History

Every change to an item is tracked in the activity log. You can see who changed what and when. Click the Activity tab in the item detail panel to view the full history. Administrators can restore previous values by clicking on any change in the activity log and selecting Revert to this value.
