Board fields, roles, and members

Control which task fields appear on a board, add custom fields, and manage who can do what on the board with board roles and auto-membership.

Each board has its own Fields and Members settings, so two boards in the same project can show different fields and have different teams. Both are configured from Board Settings.

Fields

In the Fields tab, configure each built-in task field:

• Visible: show or hide the field on the task form.
• Sort order: drag to reorder fields on the form.

Custom fields

Click + Add Custom Field, pick a Field Type (Text, Select, Date, and more), name it, add options for Select fields, and set visibility on card like any standard field. Custom fields are per board, so add the same field separately on each board that needs it.

Auto-membership

People are auto-added as Members when they’re assigned to a task, set as a task’s Reporter, or @mentioned in a task description, so you rarely need to invite everyone upfront. Promote auto-added members to Admin or Owner if they need more control.
