What is the Board data block and how to create one?

Updated over 8 months ago

The Board is one of the data blocks available in the formaloos.

To add a new page containing your data, open your app by clicking the formaloo. Then, edit your app, click the + Add Page option on your menu, and select Block.

Here, first, insert the title of the page. For example, set it as "new page".

Next, you should select a formaloo. This is the formaloo which you want to display its data.

Then choose Show Data and select the Board option.

The board view is available with Kanban or Grid view. Read on to learn more about each.

Kanban view

Then Kanban view lets you categorize your data in multiple columns. Each category can be a single choice on your data. Each category might have multiple data rows (formaloo responses).

For example, imagine your formaloo has a Single-choice (or Dropdown) field for gender. Each data row (response) can be female/male/not stated. Now, you can categorize your responses into 3 columns, and each response lies in one of the three possible categories.

The Kanban view displays your responses in 3 columns, and each response in a card in its relevant category.

Grid view

The Grid view lets you display your data in a gallery of cards. Each card showcases one data row (formaloo response).

That's it! Click save, and the Board view of your selected formaloo will show up on a new page on your menu.
