Kanban views
Kanban views are perfect for visualizing and moving records through the stages of your workflow.
Using kanban views
Create a kanban view
There are two ways to create a kanban view:
1. When creating a new list choose Manual, followed by Companies or People. Under Start from scratch with a view choose Kanban
2. From an existing view Select + Create new in the view dropdown and select Kanban
Note: Kanban views require a status attribute to get started. This refers to the stages your cards will move through in a process e.g. Sales stage.
Hiding stages
Click a stage name followed by Hide stage to hide a stage in your view. You can also click View settings to re-order, hide, and add stages to your kanban view.
If you'd like to hide the No stage column from your kanban view, click View settings followed by Visible columns from the dropdown. Toggle No status to hide this column.
Bulk update stage for kanban cards
You can select multiple kanban cards in a view and move them from stage to stage. Hover over a card and check the box that appears in the top right corner to select it. You can also select a card, hold shift, scroll down, and select anoter card in the same stage to select all cards in between. You can then drag and drop selected cards to move them into a new stage simultaneously.
Confetti stages
Click on any stage name in a kanban view and toggle on Confetti - each time a card is moved to this stage a confetti canon will fire 🎉 - great for celebrating wins big and small.
