Board settings let you set labels and defaults that apply only to that board. The board inherits the team-wide settings, and only the items you change on the board override them. Who can do this: Owner, Manager, Member (Guests can’t change them)

Open the settings

Open Board settings in either of these ways.
  • On the board screen, click the board name or description at the top
  • In the board list, open the menu at the left end of the row and choose Board settings
After making changes, click Save changes. To undo them, click Discard changes.

What you can change

The settings are split into tabs. The Basics tab has these items.

Status labels

On the Status labels tab, you can change just the display names of statuses to fit the board, such as renaming “In progress” to “Working on it” or “In review” to “Under review.” The stages themselves (the six from Draft through Done and Cancelled) don’t change. Any status you leave blank uses the team’s label. This doesn’t affect cards on My Board that don’t belong to a board.

Card create defaults

On the Card defaults tab, set the values filled in from the start when you create a card on this board. You can set the initial card name, status, priority, Hours (planned), and the start date and due date (how many days from today, and at what time). Turn on Set the processor, reviewer, and receiver to the creator to make the person who creates the card the Processor, Reviewer, and Receiver too. Fields you leave blank use the team’s defaults. Admins change the team-wide defaults in the admin console.

Google Drive folder

Normally, the board’s folder is created automatically inside the team’s ZARMS ボード (ZARMS boards) folder. Choose a parent folder only when you want to keep the files somewhere else, for example to separate the files of a board you invite Guests to from your other boards. To remove the folder you chose, click Clear selection. Changing the parent folder doesn’t move any existing Google Drive folders or files. For details, see Google Drive structure and permissions.

Google Chat and Slack notifications

Owners and Managers also see the Notifications tab, which posts the board’s activity to a Google Chat space or a Slack channel. For how to set it up, see Post board activity to Google Chat or Slack.

Other actions from the settings screen

At the bottom of Board settings, there are also Duplicate board and Archived buttons. For how to use them, see Duplicate and archive a board.
