Organize work with projects
A project is a workspace-scoped grouping of tickets toward a shared goal. Projects are Control Center-only — they never sync to an external provider such as Linear.
Create a project
Section titled “Create a project”- Expand the Tickets group in the workspace sidebar. It lists All tickets, one row per non-archived project, then New project.
- Click New project.
- Fill in Project name, an optional Description and pick a Color.
- Press Create project.
You land on the new project’s overview and the project appears as a sidebar row under Tickets.
Add tickets to a project
Section titled “Add tickets to a project”Project is a single-ticket field, set in either of two places:
- Open the ticket and set Project in its properties rail.
- Right-click the ticket in the list and use the Project submenu.
The properties-rail picker also offers New project, so you can file a ticket into a project you create on the spot. No project clears the field.
A ticket belongs to at most one project.
You can also start from the project: New ticket on the project overview creates a ticket and files it there.
Read project progress
Section titled “Read project progress”Open a project from its sidebar row, or go to
/workspaces/<workspace-id>/projects/<project-id>.
The overview shows the project’s glyph and name, a status badge, the description and a done-of-total progress bar. Below that, the project’s tickets are grouped by status.
It does not aggregate anything else — there is no assignee breakdown and no priority distribution. For those, filter the main ticket list instead.
Change project status
Section titled “Change project status”Projects have three states:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Active | Work is ongoing |
| Completed | All work is done |
| Archived | Historical reference |
Use the ⋯ menu on the project header. It offers Edit project, Mark completed / Mark active, Archive / Restore and Delete project.
Archiving hides the project from the sidebar list and from the ticket pickers. It is reversible — Restore puts the project back to active — but the project is only reachable by URL while archived.
Projects created for you
Section titled “Projects created for you”Approving an orchestration creates a project and files every generated sub-ticket under it, alongside anything you filed by hand. That is the only automated path: no pipeline node creates tickets, so a pipeline cannot populate a project. See Run an orchestration.
