Creating projects and configuring keys
How to create a project
- In the sidebar, click Projects, then click New project.
- Enter the Project Name (e.g. Mobile App Redesign).
- Specify the Project Key: 2 to 4 uppercase characters (e.g.
MOB). - (Optional) Assign a Client Name and an Hourly Rate for time billing.
- Click Create project.
Choosing a good project key
The project key becomes the prefix for every task (e.g. MOB-1, MOB-2). Choose short, memorable prefixes that team members can easily reference in commit messages or chat (e.g. API, WEB, OPS).
Project billing settings
If work on this project is billed to a client, enter an hourly rate (e.g. $150.00). When team members log time against tickets in this project, those hours automatically calculate into client invoices.
