Run your team in Notion: wiki and projects / Lesson 2 of 3
Track projects on a board
A projects database with priority and due dates, shown as a Kanban board.
About 15 minutes
Step by step
Create the database
Make a new page and, under "Get started with", choose ••• then Table. To put it inside your wiki instead, type /database on the wiki page.
Add your first projects
Click New page for each project. Each row is a page, so you can write the project brief inside it.
Add properties
Click Add property, name it Priority and add options P1, P2 and P3. Click + to the right of a column to add Due date with the Date type, and add an Owner using the Person type.
Add a board view
Click + next to the database name and choose Board. Projects show as cards grouped by status; drag a card to move it along.
Make views for each person
Add filters and sorts to create views such as "My projects" or "Due this week".
