Lists

The dropdown and option sets that fields draw from.

Lists are reusable sets of options used by dropdown fields on items. Managing lists centrally keeps option sets consistent across your group.

Creating a list#

Create a new list by giving it a name and adding option entries. Each entry has a label and an optional color, used for visual distinction in the UI (e.g., kanban columns, status badges).

Editing list entries#

Add, rename, reorder, or remove entries on an existing list. Reordering changes the order entries appear in dropdowns and on kanban boards.

Usage#

Once created, a list can be assigned to any dropdown field in your item type configuration. Multiple fields can reference the same list, so updating the list updates every field that uses it.

Deleting entries#

Removing an entry does not change items that already have that value set — those items keep the value until it is changed manually.

Tips#

  • Give entries colors so statuses and categories are instantly recognizable in tables and boards.
  • Reuse one list across several fields/types instead of recreating the same options.
