Issue Details

Explore the issue detail page — description, comments, properties, and actions.

The issue detail page is the full-screen view for a single issue. Click any issue title from the board, list, or timeline to open it. The URL uses the issue's identifier (e.g., /issues/CLV-042), making it easy to share.

Layout

The page has two main areas:

  • Left panel — The issue's title, description, sub-issues, relations, attachments, and activity feed.
  • Right panel — The properties sidebar with all issue metadata.

You can collapse the properties sidebar by clicking the panel toggle button in the top-right toolbar.

Issue identifier and breadcrumb

At the top of the left panel, a breadcrumb shows the path: workspace → project → parent issue (if any) → current identifier. The identifier (e.g., CLV-042) is displayed in monospace alongside the current status icon.

Title

Click the issue title to edit it inline. Press Enter to save, or Escape to cancel.

Description

Below the title, the description editor uses a rich-text format with support for headings, bold, italic, code blocks, bullet lists, numbered lists, checkboxes, and more.

Click anywhere in the description area to start editing. The AI Draft description button (visible in the description toolbar) can generate a starter description based on the issue title.

Sub-issues

The Sub-issues section below the description lists all child issues of this issue. Click Add sub-issue to create a new child issue linked to this one, or search for an existing issue to nest under it.

Sub-issues inherit the parent's project. They appear as separate issues in the board and list views, with an indicator showing they have a parent.

Relations

The Relations section shows how this issue connects to others. Click Add relation to link issues with a relation type:

Relation typeMeaning

Duplicate ofThis issue is a duplicate of another.

Each relation shows the related issue's identifier, title, and current status. Click a related issue's title to open it. Hover over a relation and click the X button to remove it.

Attachments and linked resources

The Attachments section holds files and linked documents or whiteboards connected to this issue. Click Attach to:

  • Link an existing document or whiteboard from your workspace.
  • Clicking attached documents or boards opens them in their respective editors.

Activity and comments

The activity section at the bottom of the left panel shows a chronological log of all changes to the issue, including:

  • Status changes
  • Assignee changes
  • Priority changes
  • Comments posted by team members
