Learn the shape of it

Before anything else, it helps to know how the pieces fit together: workspace → project → work item, with cycles, modules, views and pages laid over the top.

Core concepts


The everyday basics

ProjectsCreate a project, set its states and labels, manage its members and settings.
Work itemsTasks, bugs and stories: properties, sub-items, comments, attachments, relations.
CyclesRun a sprint: add work, track the burn-down, transfer what didn't finish.
ModulesGroup work into a deliverable that can span cycles.
Views & layoutsBoard, list, spreadsheet, calendar, timeline. Filter, group, sort — and save it.
PagesSpecs, notes and knowledge, living next to the work.
Members & rolesInvite people. What admins, members and guests can each do.
NotificationsYour inbox, what triggers it, and how to stop the noise.
