How to Create a Kanban Board in Coda: step-by-step guide
Start by opening the Coda document where you want to create your Kanban board.
Look for the table or list you want to transform into a Kanban board. If you don't have one yet, create a new table.
Click on the table's view menu (the icon with three dots) to access display options.
From the dropdown menu, select 'Board' to transform your table into a Kanban-style view.
Enhance your workflow by adding new status columns for different project phases. Click 'Add status column' to expand your board.
Now, fine-tune your column properties by renaming them, choosing colors, or adjusting card display settings for a more organized workflow.
Your Kanban board will now display cards grouped by status, where each column represents a different stage in your workflow.
Easily move tasks between columns to update their status.
Keep your board tidy by using filters to focus on specific priorities, team members, or upcoming deadlines.
