- Open
Settingsin the workspace. - Under

Topicstab is selected. The other tab isTags. - Tap the plus
New topic. - Enter a
Topic nameand an optionalDescription. Save. - The list shows name and description. The pencil edits both; delete removes the topic.
- The search at the top right expands from a magnifier. Escape or the close icon clears and collapses it.
- To put a topic on a task: open the task and pick
Topicin the header, or use the topic pill on the card. On the web the empty pill appears when you hover the card. - The same menu ends with
New topic. Choosing it opens the editor, creates the topic, and assigns it immediately. - A note has the same
Topicpill in the header, next to private or public. The notes list shows the topic on the row. - In a description, type
#plus the name to link the topic.
The result
Topics exist in the workspace. Tasks and notes can carry one, and the board can filter by them.
