Now that you've created a List inside your Project, let us go ahead and start adding work items. At the end of this help article, you will be able to create a List full of actionable work items.



As you can see from the above image, work items inside your List can be a:


1. User Story:

2. Task:

3. Subtask:

4. Enhancement:

5. Bug:

6. Section:



Sections can be used to group similar work items inside your List together to provide your team with more context.


Once inside your List, you can start adding work items:

  • When your List is empty, you can choose to create a Section or a Task by clicking on one of the options. 
  • To change an item's type, right click on the item and select which type you would like to change to.
  • Hit [ Tab ] to turn any item into a Subtask.


Keyboard Shortcuts:

  • Turn any item into a task by typing ' - ' at the beginning of an item.
  • Toggle between item types using Ctrl + Shift + S (or Cmd + Shift + S if you use a Mac).
  • Add a Section to group similar items together by typing ' * ' at the beginning of an item.


Next we'll see how to add assignees, due dates, statuses, and estimate to your work items, so you can start tracking them.
