Kanban View
Overview
The Kanban view organizes records into vertical columns (lanes) based on a field value. Cards can be dragged between lanes to update the grouping field — perfect for workflow tracking, status management, and task boards.
Columns and swimlanes
Field-based grouping
The most common setup groups cards by a Select column (e.g., "Status" with values "To Do", "In Progress", "Done"). Each unique value becomes a lane.
Configure grouping with:
groupBy— The column to group bygroupOrder— Custom lane orderinghideEmptyGroups— Hide lanes with no cardscollapsedGroups— Lanes to collapse by default
Weekday-based grouping
For date-driven workflows, the kanban can group by weekdays:
| Range | Description |
|---|---|
| Current week | Lanes for Monday through Sunday of the current week |
| Next week | Lanes for next week's days |
| Both weeks | Current and next week combined |
| Custom range | Specify start and end dates |
Configure with groupType: "weekdays", dateField, and weekRange.
Drag and drop
Drag a card from one lane to another to update its grouped field value. For example, dragging a card from "To Do" to "In Progress" automatically updates the record's status field.
Cards can also be reordered within a lane. The sort order within groups is configurable via sortWithinGroups.
Card display
Configure which fields appear on each card using displayFields. Cards show the configured fields as a compact summary. Conditional formatting applies color to cards based on field value conditions.
Configuring card fields
The Campos ("Fields") tab in the view configuration splits fields into two lists:
- No cartão ("On the card") - the chosen fields, in the order they render on the card.
- Disponíveis ("Available") - the remaining eligible fields.
The order in "No cartão" is the render order on the card - drag the grip to reorder. The 1st field renders as the card title (primary style), the 2nd as secondary text, and the rest as meta lines.
Toggling a field on in "Disponíveis" appends it to the end of "No cartão". Toggling a field off removes it without disturbing the order of the others.
With no fields chosen, the card automatically shows the first 3 non-hidden columns.
Users can still hide fields at runtime from the view menu - this filters the displayed list but preserves the configured order of the remaining fields.
