Ideas

Using topics to organize ideas

Topics let users categorize ideas when they submit them, making it easier to organize and filter feedback. You define which topics are available for your board.

Creating topics

  1. Go to SettingsCompanyTopics

  2. Click Create Topic

  3. Enter a name (up to 80 characters)

  4. Choose a color

  5. Click save

Topics appear as a dropdown when users create ideas. You can reorder topics by dragging them.

Requiring topics

You can make topic selection required when submitting ideas. Enable "Require idea topic" in your company settings to force users to choose a topic before submitting.

Filtering by topic

Users can filter the Ideas Board by topic to see only ideas in specific categories. This helps users find relevant feedback and avoid submitting duplicates.

Keep your topic list focused—typically 3-7 high-level categories work best. Too many options overwhelm users.

Managing topics

Edit or delete topics from the Topics settings page. Deleting a topic removes it from all ideas currently using it.
