Transition work items through a workflow

When your board is grouped by status, you can drag a card on the board to a different column if there’s an available transition set up or if there’s a global transition applied.

Here’s another way to move a work item to a different status:

  1. Open the dialog of the work item you’d like to transition.

  2. Select the dropdown to change the status at the top right corner.
