Views

Views are saved collections of filters that you can apply to issues, allowing you to analyze and manage them efficiently. Instead of reapplying the same filters repeatedly, you can save them with a title for easy access and reuse.

View types

  • Workspace Views
    These are created at the Workspace level and are available to all Members, depending on whether they are marked as public or private. These include some default system-defined Views that cannot be removed. Workspace Views

  • Project Views
    These Views are created within the specific project and are accessible to all Members of the project, depending on whether they are set as public or private. This feature is enabled by default and can be toggled on or off from the project settings.
