Creating a work item
Boards · 3 min read · Updated 29 May 2026
Work items are the atomic unit of work in Karmo. They live on boards, can have subtasks, attachments, custom fields, and a full activity history.
1
Click Add task or use the keyboard shortcut
Press C anywhere on the board to open the quick-create form. Add a title and press Enter to save with defaults.
2
Open the detail view
Click any card to open its full detail panel. From here you can add a description (rich text), set priority, assignee, due date, and sprint.
Editing fields inline
Click any field on the card or in the detail panel to edit it in place. Changes auto-save and appear in the activity history immediately.
Bulk edit: Select multiple cards by holding Shift and clicking, then use the action bar to reassign, reprioritize, or move them at once.
