Views, filters and saved views

See a board's cards as a board, list, table, calendar or timeline, filter, sort and group them, and save the views you use.

Every board can show its cards in five ways: as columns, a grouped list, a sortable table, a month calendar or a timeline. Search, filters, sorting and grouping narrow any of them, and a saved view keeps a combination as its own tab for everyone on the board.

  • Who can use it: Everyone who can see the board can switch views, search, filter, sort and group. Saving, renaming, updating and deleting saved views needs the Save board views permission (Owners, Admins and Members by default), on any board you can see. Dragging cards on the calendar or timeline needs the right to edit them (Add and work on cards). See Roles and permissions.
  • Before you start: Open a board from the Kanban page.

Switch views

The tabs under the board's name switch between its views. Content calendars also have Planner and Analytics; saved views follow the built-in tabs, and + at the end saves a new one.

The board tabs Overview, Board, List, Table, Calendar, Timeline, Planner, Analytics, Files, Activity, the saved view High priority and +

TabWhat it shows
OverviewProgress, what's coming up, details, members and milestones (Board overview, files and activity).
BoardOne column per status (Add and work on cards).
ListThe cards as rows, grouped by status or another field.
TableThe cards as a sortable table with the fields of the board's kind.
CalendarThe cards on a month calendar by date.
TimelineThe cards as bars across weeks or months, with milestones.
Planner, AnalyticsContent calendars only (Content planner and social analytics).
FilesEvery file on the board (Board overview, files and activity).
ActivityEverything that changed on the board (Board overview, files and activity).

The tab, search, filters, sort and grouping are part of the page's address, so you can bookmark a view or send it to a teammate. Switching between the built-in tabs keeps your search and filters.

Search and filter cards

Type in Search cards above the cards, or press / to jump there. Search matches a card's key, title and description, and the names of contacts linked to it; on content calendars also captions and hashtags, and on lead pipelines the next step. While a search or filter is on, the count on the right says how many cards match, for example "4 of 10".

Add a filter

Click Filter, point to a field and tick one or more values. The cards narrow as you tick.

Adjust the chips

Each filter shows as a chip under the toolbar. Values ticked in one chip widen the match (any of them); separate chips narrow it (all of them), which is why they're joined by "and".

The toolbar with Filter 2, and the chips Priority is Urgent, High and Assignee is not Unassigned, then Add

Click a chip to switch between is and is not, or to change its values. Click its × to remove it, Add to filter on another field, or Clear all to remove every filter.

A chip's menu with is not ticked and the values You, Unassigned (ticked), Priya Raman, Jonah Weiss, Lena Ortiz and Tomás Herrera

When nothing matches, the view says, for example, No tasks match. Click Clear search and filters to see every card again.

Sort and group

On the List, Table and Timeline tabs, click Sort: to order the cards. Manual (the default) follows the order on the board; the others are Title, Due date, Start date, Priority, Status, Assignee, Created and Updated, plus Publish time on content calendars, Deal value and Chance to close on lead pipelines, and Spend and Conversions on ad boards. Pick Ascending or Descending under Order; cards without a value go last.

The Sort by menu with Manual ticked, then Title, Due date, Start date, Priority, Status, Assignee, Created and Updated

On the List and Timeline tabs, click Group: to group the cards by Status (the default), Assignee, Priority, Label, Due date, or None for one group of all cards. Content calendars can also group by Post status and Network.

The Group by menu with Status ticked, then Assignee, Priority, Label, Due date and None

List

The List tab shows each card as a row with its key and title, Status, Assignee, Priority, Due date and Labels. Finished cards are struck through, and overdue dates are red. Grouped by assignee, your cards come first and a card with several assignees shows in each of their groups.

The list grouped by assignee: You with two cards, Jonah Weiss with two and Lena Ortiz with one, each group ending in Add card

  • Click the arrow before a group's name to fold or unfold it.
  • Click Add card under a group (or the + beside its name) to add a card that takes that group's status, priority, assignee or label.
  • Tick rows to change several cards at once (Change several cards at once).

Table

The Table tab lists every card with more of its fields, by board kind. Click a column header to sort by it, and again to reverse.

Calendar

The Calendar tab shows a month. A post sits on the day it publishes (with its time), and other cards on their due date (a campaign without one sits on its start day). Each day shows up to four cards; click … more to see the rest. Cards without a date wait in No date under the month.

October 2026 on the Social content calendar, with posts on the 14th, 17th, 21st, 22nd, 23rd and 25th, today highlighted, and four posts under No date

  • Use the arrows to go to the previous or next month, and Today to come back.
  • Drag a card to another day to make that day its due date. A post moves to the new day and keeps its time of day; it can't move to a time that has passed, and published posts don't move. Moving a scheduled post needs Schedule and publish posts.
  • Click a card to open it.

On a phone, the calendar lists the days of the month that have cards instead ("Nothing is scheduled this month." when there are none).

Timeline

The Timeline tab draws each dated card as a bar from its start to its due date (a campaign's bar is its flight, a post's is its publish day). The blue line is today. Cards without a due date stay off the timeline; the line above it says how many are on.

The Q4 website launch timeline in weeks: the Milestones row with Site map signed off and Developer handoff, then bars grouped by status, and today's blue line

  • Switch between Weeks and Months, and click Today to scroll back to today.
  • The Milestones row shows the board's milestones as diamonds; past ones are grey (Set the dates, lead and milestones).
  • A bar fills as the card's checklist gets done.
  • Drag a bar to move the card's dates, or drag its right edge to change the end. With a bar focused, ← and → move it a day, and Shift ← / Shift → change its end.

Save a view

Set up the view

Search, filter, sort and group the cards the way you want them.

Click + and name it

Click + at the end of the tabs. The dialog sums up what it saves, for example "1 filter, sorted by due". Type a Name (up to 30 characters, unique on the board) and choose how it opens under Show as: Board, List, Table, Calendar or Timeline.

The Save view dialog: Saves 1 filter, sorted by due as a tab on Q4 website launch, for everyone on the board, with the name Due this week and Show as List

Save it

Click Save view. The view opens as a new tab, and everyone on the board sees it.

Update, rename or delete a saved view

Open the saved view's tab. If you change its filters, sort or grouping, the view's ⋯ menu (next to its name) offers Update with current filters to save the change. It also has Rename and Delete view.

The High priority view's menu with Update with current filters, Rename and Delete view

Deleting a view asks you to confirm; the cards stay, only the saved filters go. Click Undo in the message to bring the view back. Renaming changes the name for everyone on the board.

Leaving a saved view

Switching from a saved view to a built-in tab drops the view's filters, so the tab shows every card again.
