You can save and reuse statuses in Folders, Lists, and Spaces throughout your entire Workspace.
You can create new status templates in three instances:
-
When creating a new Folder, Space or List.
-
When editing your statuses within an existing Folder or Space.
-
When editing a List.
Once you are viewing a Space, Folder, or List’s status settings, you'll be able to view the current status templates available to you. You can also create custom statuses.
