##Using HuBoard

How do I create a new board from my GitHub repository?

Detailed instructions here

How can I link multiple repositories to a board?

Linking multiple repositories is straight forward and for your convenience we have a short video that demonstrates how to link in app OR using our conventions

How can I invite collaborators/team members to my HuBoard?

HuBoard's data is GitHubs data. So your HuBoard will have the same collaborators/team members that you have on GitHub.

How do I manage permissions for my Board?

HuBoard matches GitHub’s permissions. i.e. A collaborator granted read only access to your repository in GitHub will only be able to view cards on HuBoard, drag and drop, and editing features will be disabled.

General Support

Why does HuBoard need read and write access for my repositories?

GitHub requires that we request full read/write access to a repository in order to manipulate cards (issues) and to manage columns (labels). See GitHub OAuth scope documentation for more information.

• We promise to only use these permissions to support user-requested actions.
• We only access repository contents to scan for issue templates. (See huboard-web#248 for details).
• We never store authorization tokens beyond your current session.
• We also ask for email permissions to assist us in supporting you.

And because we're open source, you can verify all of this yourself!

How can I request a new feature be added to HuBoard?

The best way to add a feature request would be to:

1. Search our board to see if your issue is already an open card.
2. If it is, please comment in support of the feature!
3. If it's not, please open a new card describing your request.

How can I submit a bug report?

To submit a non-critical bug report, take the same approach as adding a feature request.

1. Search our board to see if your bug is already an open card.
2. If it is, please help us confirm and clarify the bug report!
3. If your specific bug has not been reported, please open a new card describing the issue and the expected behavior.

NOTE: If the bug is blocking or critical, please reach out to us directly so that we can address the issue as quickly as possible: support@huboard.com.

Can I delete/remove my project from HuBoard?

HuBoard does not have a database, so we do not store projects. If you would like to disable HuBoard's access to your GitHub repository, you can revoke our authorization in personal settings. GitHub organization owners can also deny access.

Can I delete cards from my HuBoard?

Cards in HuBoard cannot be deleted, just like GitHub issues. Closed cards may be archived to remove them from boards.

Integrations

Our current integrations can be found here.

Adding Cards

Do HuBoard cards support any sort of special syntax or styling?

We plan to implement the Issue and Pull Request templates features as announced here.

Can I add a list of tasks to my HuBoard card?

HuBoard cards use GitHub Flavoured Markdown which includes the ability to create task lists.

How do I assign a label to a card?

In your HuBoard, once you have created a card, click on the issue card and there will be a option on the right to assign a label.

how do I assign a card to a milestone?

In the same way you can assign a user or label to an issue. You can assign milestones to a card as option on the right.

How do I create a new milestone in HuBoard?

To create a new milestone, at the top right of your board there is a milestone icon. Click the icon and a flag will appear that will say "create milestone". Click the flag and fill out the options.

##Filtering Issues

####How do I filter issues in huboard? The filter tab can be found in the top left corner of your dashboard.

####Can I link and share my filters? To share your filters, Click twice on the filters you would like to apply and you will notice that the Url changes. You can then copy and share that Url with team members.
