Are you looking to perform an action such as notifying your team, starting the Time Tracking Column, or moving an item with just a click of a button? With the addition of the Button Column to your board, you can do exactly that!

How to add it

To add the Button Column, click on the "+" icon at the top right of your board and select "More columns" from the dropdown menu. Once in the Column Center, search for "Button" in the search bar and select "Add to board." 

Configure the column

Once you've added the column, you will immediately be prompted to set it up by configuring an action to occur as soon as the button is clicked.

To configure the specific action, click on the blue "Set up" button. This will lead you to the custom automations set up, where you will define what action you'd like to trigger whenever you or your colleagues click on the button. 

Depending on the action chosen, you will need to set up the respective parameters. Below, we have configured our button to create a new item whenever the button is clicked. 

Once you've completed the setup, you will see the custom automation for the Button Column added to your board's automations center. 

Customizing your button

Your Button Column can be customized by choosing the action performed when the button is clicked, as well as the text written on it and the button's color. To do this, click on the three dots next to your column title, hover over "Settings", and select "Customize Button column."

From the "Button Settings", you can edit your connected automation, change the "Button text", and change the "Color" of the button. 

Delete or edit the Button Column automation

Deleting or editing the Button Column automation can be done in the Button Column Settings, as shown in the above section, or via the Automations Center. To access the Automation Center, click on the "Automate" button on the top right of the board.

From the Automation Center, you can make any edits or deletions you need to the automation action that will occur when the button is clicked.

Alternatively, you can delete or edit the automation from the "Button Settings" itself by clicking on the "pen" or "trash" icon.
