Workboard

The workboard keeps work cards for each product. A card has a title, a description and a status: to do, in progress, blocked or done.

Administrators and members, through a worker that has workboard permission.

  • The worker has “Read the workboard” to list and read cards, and “Change the workboard” to create and update cards. You see this under “N permissions · show” in Chat.
  • The worker works on the product whose board you mean.
  1. Open Chat and choose a worker with workboard permission.
  2. Ask in plain words, for example:
    • “List the open cards on the board.”
    • “Create a card: Update the price page. Status: to do.”
    • “Set the card about the login bug to done.”
  3. Press Send.
  • The worker answers with the cards, or confirms what it changed and gives the card’s id.
  • The run’s Audit lists every card the worker read, created or changed. The card text is not copied into the audit.
  • A worker sees and changes only cards on the boards of its own products.
  • By default a workboard change is at the level “Tells you after”: the administrator gets a notice. If the administrator raised it to “Asks you first”, the change waits for approval. See Approvals and checks.
