Boards serve as the backbone of the app, housing the advanced columns that power its functionality. To create a new board, follow these steps:
Advanced Columns is in a BETA release, therefore, its features are evolving quickly and screenshots seen below may be a bit different of the current version deployed on your Jira instance. We will do our best to keep this documentation as updated as we can!
✍️ Step-by-Step:
Access the homepage by navigating to “Apps” and clicking on “Advanced Columns”:
Click on “Create Board” in the top-right corner:
A window will be shown like the one below:
Enter the following details:
Name (Required): A unique identification for your board.
Labels (Optional): Categorize your boards by adding labels that identify their content or purpose. You can either select the existing labels or create a brand new one for your new board. If you wish to know more about labels and how to use them, visit our documentation on them clicking HERE.
Description (Optional): A description provides useful information and additional details for whoever accesses your board in the future.
Columns (Optional): If you wish to include any existing columns select them on this field. If none of them applies, don’t worry: you will be able to create your own ADVANCED COLUMNS later on.
Sharing: You can choose if your board will be public or private.
Once you have filled out the necessary details, click "Create" to create your board.
Your new board will now be available, and you can now add your advanced columns and start organizing your app's data efficiently.
📝 Important Tips:
Filling required fields is mandatory to create a new board. To avoid duplication, consider choosing an unique name for your board. If you leave the field “Name” blank or choose a name that is already in use, a message will be displayed according to the situation:
When you create a board, you’ll immediately be made the owner of the board. Therefore, you will have administrative privileges even if you assign another user(s) as admin(s) later.
