Everything

View and manage all your work items in one place.

The Everything page provides a centralized view of all the items in your workspace, spanning teams, projects, and workflows. Use it to locate specific stories, bugs, or epics using search and filters, monitor progress across teams, and customize views to suit your needs.


The page title displays the total number of items you have permission to view in the workspace and the number of currently visible based on filters and search criteria. For example '215/400' indicates that 215 of the 400 items you have access to are displayed in the list.

⚠️

What about private team items?

Items from private team backlogs you're not a member of are excluded when accessing the Everything page directly. If accessed from a context where private team items are included, such as viewing all items in a timebox, their information will be redacted for users without permission to view the private team’s backlog.



Filter the list

Find items that match specific criteria by applying one or more filters. For example, you could filter for stories from a specific product theme that are done.

  1. Use the icons at the top of the table to choose whether to show Stories, Epics, Bugs, or a combination. At least one must be selected to display any items.
  2. Click the filter (funnel) icon at the top of the table.
  3. Select a filter and fill in any required details.
  4. Click Apply.
  5. Repeat steps 2-4 to add additional filters as needed.

The list updates to display only items matching criteria from all filters.

For multi-select filters, items matching any of the selected values are included. For example, using the Workflow step filter to view items in To do and Design includes items in either step.


Available filters

Filters refine the list to display items matching specific criteria.

Understanding the Workflow step filter

The Workflow step filter helps you narrow down items based on their current workflows step. Steps are organized by categoryTo do, In progress, Done, and Won't do—to reflect how work progresses through workflows.

How it works

  • Step organization: Workflow steps are grouped by category, but since workflows are customizable, steps with the same name may appear in different categories. For example, one team might categorize 'Stakeholder Review' as In progress, while another team categorizes it as Done. Step names are deduplicated within each category, but not across categories.
  • Selecting steps: You can select individual steps within a category or choose Select all to include all steps in a category. When all steps in a category are selected, the filter displays 'All steps in '[name]' category' instead of listing each step individually.
  • Clearing steps: To remove individual steps from the filter, deselect them in the list. If you chose to select all steps in a category, you can click Clear selected to remove them all from that category.

Understanding the Tag filter

The Tag filter helps you find items based on the tags applied to them. You can include or exclude specific key:value pairs, or any value for a key.

How it works

  • Including tags: Select Including tag, then select one or more values. Items that have at least one of the selected key:value pairs are included. For example, selecting Component: delivery and Order-stage: browsing returns items with either tag.
  • Excluding tags: Select Excluding tag, then select one or more values. Items that have any of the selected key:value pairs are excluded. For example, selecting Component: delivery and Order-stage: browsing returns only items that have neither tag.
  • Selecting all values: Click Select all for a key to match any value for that key. The applied filter displays Any value in '[key]'.
  • Clearing values: Deselect individual values to remove them from the filter. If you selected all values for a key, click Clear selected to clear them.
  • Combining filters: Other filters further narrow the results. For example, adding Team: Delivery team limits the results to matching items assigned to the 'Delivery team'.

What counts as an update?

The Last updated column reflects changes to an item's properties. Updates include:

  • Title
  • Backlog position (for example, reordering in list or board view)
  • Assignee
  • Description and ACs
  • Associated feature flags
  • Team
  • Risk rating
  • Size
  • Workflow step
  • Timebox
  • Product theme

Filtering by date and time

Use the Created, Last updated, and Completed filters to find items within a specific date or time range. You can define an exact date range or choose a relative timeframe such as Today or Last week.

All dates and times are interpreted in your local timezone, as detected by your browser.


Date range

Choose Date range to specify exact start and end dates. Each date field includes a calendar picker where you can select days, and if needed, adjust the times.

The default start and end times are 12:00 AM (start of the selected Start date) and 11:59 PM (end of the selected End date). You can adjust these values to include specific hours and minutes for greater precision.

To create an open-ended range, select No start date or No end date. For example, choosing No start date and an end date of June 26, 2025 includes all items created on or before that date.

When a date range is applied, it appears in the filter pill. For example:

  • Created: May 26, 2025 - June 26, 2025
  • Last updated: May 26, 2025 (1:00 PM) - June 26, 2025 (4:59 PM)
  • Completed: May 26, 2025 - No end date
  • Completed: No start date - June 26, 2025

Relative timeframes

Instead of specific dates, you can choose from preset relative options.

Less than / More than n days ago

These filters compare item timestamps relative to the start of the current day (12:00 AM) in your local time zone—not the exact current time. For example:

  • Less than 3 days ago includes items from 12:00 AM three days ago up to now. Today counts as one of those days.
    • If it's 10:00 AM on June 10, this filter includes everything from June 8 12:00 AM to June 10, 10:00 AM.
  • More than 3 days ago includes items created before the start of that day.
    • If it's 10:00 AM on June 10, this filter includes everything created before June 8, 12:00 AM.

Calendar-based timeframes

Use these options to quickly filter by standard calendar periods such as Today, Yesterday, This week, Last week, This month, or Last month.

These filters are based on calendar boundaries in your local time zone, not on relative day or hour counts. For example:

  • Today: 12:00 AM today up to the current time.
  • Yesterday: 12:00 AM to 11:59 PM of the previous day.
  • This week: Monday 12:00 AM up to the current time.
  • Last week: Monday 12:00 AM to Sunday 11:59 PM of the previous week.
  • This month: 12:00 AM on the 1st day of the current calendar month to the current time.
  • Last month: 12:00 AM on the 1st day to 11:59 PM on the last day of the previous calendar month.

Calendar-based filters always align with standard calendar boundaries (weeks run Monday—Sunday, months follow full calendar months). The range for "this" periods updates dynamically as time progresses.

Time zone behavior

Relative filters use the local time zone of the person viewing the results. If a saved or shared view includes a relative filter, each viewer sees results based on their own time zone. This ensures filters align with each user's local calendar boundaries and working hours, but may lead to minor differences in included items between users in different time zones.



Modify a filter value

  1. Click on the filter above the table.
  2. Modify its value, then click Done.

The table automatically updates to display items that match the updated filter criteria.



Add or remove columns

Customize the Everything table by adding or removing columns to focus on the most relevant details for your current task.

  1. Click the Columns icon in the table header.
  2. Select or clear checkboxes to add or remove columns. Scroll through the list to see all available columns.

Available columns

ColumnDescription
IDThe item type and ID, e.g., BUG-356, STORY-47, or EPIC-123.
TitleThe item's title.
TeamName of the team backlog the item is assigned to, or 'No team'. Stories unassigned to a team are available in Story refinement. Bugs unassigned to a team, are available in Bug triage.
Workflow stepName of the workflow step the item is currently in. See Understanding workflow icons and colors.
Workflow step - IconSelect to include the workflow step icon.
AssigneeName of the assigned user or 'No assignee'.
Assignee - IconSelect to include the assignee icon.
TimeboxTimebox the item is included in, or 'No timebox'.
TagsTags (key:value pairs) applied to the item.
EpicEpic the story is included in, or 'No epic'.
OutlierIndicates whether the item is marked as an outlier ('Yes' or 'No').
Story size (stories)Size of the story, or 'Unsized'. When the table is filtered to a single team, the column header displays the total story points of all visible stories in the list.
Product theme (stories)Product theme assigned to the story, or 'No product theme'.
Risk rating (bugs)Risk rating of the bug, or 'Not rated'.
Environments (bugs)Affected environments, or 'None selected'.
CreatedDate the item was created.
Last updatedDate the item was last updated.
CompletedDate the item was completed (moved into a step in the 'Done' category of the workflow).
External IDID that identifies the item in another system, for syncing or integration.
FollowingIndicates whether you're following the item ('Yes' or 'No').

Understanding workflow icons and colors

Workflow step icons use both shape and color to show where an item is in its workflow.

Icon shape indicates the workflow type:

  • Light bulb — Story refinement
  • Bug — Bug triage
  • Circle — Team workflow

Icon color indicates the step within that workflow.

Items in Story refinement and Bug triage use predefined steps. Team workflows are customizable and always use colored circle icons.

Bulk actions

The Everything page supports several bulk actions so you can act on many selected items at once instead of updating them one by one. Select one or more rows using the checkboxes, then choose an action from the toolbar that appears.


Add items to a timebox

Group multiple items into a timebox directly from the Everything page.

This is especially helpful when you've filtered or searched for specific items, such as all the stories within a product theme, across different workflows and want to group them for prioritization or delivery.

  1. Use filters to narrow your search.
  2. Hover over the item you want to add to a timebox.
  3. Select the checkbox at the start of the row.
  4. Select additional items or use the checkbox in the table header to select all items (available for lists of 200 or fewer items).
  5. Click the Add to timebox icon.
  1. In the Add to timebox dialog, search for or select a timebox, and then click Add to timebox.

If an item is already in a timebox, you'll receive a warning before switching it to a different one.


Add stories to a product theme

Bulk add stories to a product theme directly from the Everything page.

This is helpful when you're organizing related scope—such as stories that support the same feature area or initiative—and want to review, plan, or measure that work together. Bulk adding lets you group those stories quickly, even when they span different teams and workflow steps.

  1. Use filters to narrow your search.
  2. Hover over the story you want to add to a product theme.
  3. Select the checkbox at the start of the row.
  4. Select additional stories or use the checkbox in the table header to select all items (available for lists of 200 or fewer items).
  5. Click the Add to product theme icon.
  1. In the Add to product theme dialog, search for or select a product theme, and then click Add to product theme.

If a story is already in a product, you'll receive a warning about changing the product theme before switching it to a different one.


Add stories to an epic

Bulk add stories to an epic directly from the Everything page.

This is helpful when a set of stories already contributes to the same initiative (work that shares a common goal or user outcome) and you want to bring them under one epic to track progress and see how the pieces fit together, without adding each story one by one.

  1. Use filters to narrow your search.

  2. Hover over the story you want to add to an epic.

  3. Select the checkbox at the start of the row.

  4. Select additional stories or use the checkbox in the table header to select all items (available for lists of 100 or fewer items).

  5. Click the Add to epic icon.

  1. In the Add to epic dialog, search for or select an epic, and then click Add to epic.

This action is only available when your selection contains stories only—bugs and epics can't be assigned to an epic.

If a story is already assigned to a different epic, you'll receive a warning that it will be moved before you confirm.

Epics can hold up to 100 stories. If your selection would push the epic past that limit, you'll see an error telling you how many more stories can be added, or that the epic has already reached its 100-story limit.


Add tags to items

Add the same tag to multiple stories, bugs, and epics directly from the Everything page.

This is helpful when you want to categorize related work consistently, even when the items span different teams, workflows, or item types.

  1. Use filters to narrow your search.
  2. Hover over the item you want to tag.
  3. Select the checkbox at the start of the row.
  4. Select additional items or use the checkbox in the table header to select all items.
  5. Click the Add tag icon.
  1. Search for or select a key and value.
  2. Click Add tag.
