Dashboard & My work
The projects dashboard after sign-in: sprint progress, starred and recent projects, My work, Assign to me, project links, and deleting, restoring or moving a project.
What does the projects dashboard show?
After signing in you see a card for every project you can access: key, name, board type, your role, running sprints with a progress bar and days left, open issues, issues assigned to you, and when it last changed.
- Star the projects you use most so they stay on top, and see the ones you opened recently (remembered in this browser)
- Search by name or key, filter by board type, sort by recent activity, name or most assigned to you
- Switch between cards and a compact list
- Company admins create projects from here
- Open a board from its card, the project menu at the top left, or ⌘K
What is My work?
My work lists every open issue assigned to you across all projects, grouped by project, with status, story points and sprint. Show done issues too, and load more when the list is long. AI agents read the same list over MCP (list_my_issues).
What is the fastest way to take an issue?
- Press the Assign to me button on a card (shown on hover or focus, always on phones)
- Choose Assign to me in the ⋯ menu of backlog-strip and planning rows
- Use the button under Assignee in the issue drawer
- Press I on a focused card or row, or in the open drawer
A toast confirms it with Undo. Viewers, and companies in read-only mode, do not get the button.
How do I send a project to a teammate or an AI agent?
Click the project name at the top of its board: it copies the project link (such as https://app.boardmark.ai/p/APP, where APP is the project key) and a message confirms it. Paste it to a teammate, who opens the same board if they have access to the project, or to an AI agent connected over MCP, which takes the project key from the link. If the browser blocks copying, the link is shown to copy by hand.
Can I delete a project?
Yes. A company admin, or a project admin of that project, opens Project settings → Danger zone, presses Delete project and types the project key (for example APP) to confirm. The project is hidden from everyone at once — the projects dashboard, My work, search, docs, attachments and AI agents over MCP.
- Nobody else sees the Danger zone
- Not possible while an import from Jira into that project is running — the button is disabled with the reason
- Web app only: AI agents and MCP cannot delete a project
- A deleted project does not count toward the free tier's 2 projects
- The key stays reserved until the project is deleted for good; after that it is free for a new project
- Company admins and the project's admins get an email with a restore link and the date it will be deleted for good, and a reminder 7 days before — these emails cannot be turned off
Can I restore a deleted project?
Yes, for 30 days. The projects dashboard has a Recently deleted section (shown when there is a project you can restore) with who deleted it, when, the days left and the date it will be deleted for good; press Restore and everything is back as it was. Company admins and the project's admins can restore it. On the free tier, a restore that would make more than 2 projects needs another project deleted, or the company to leave the free tier, first.
After 30 days the project is deleted for good with all its issues, comments, sprints, docs and attachments, and can no longer be restored. Backups roll it off within 30 days after that.
Premium: deleting asks whether to keep the history (it uses paid storage), and you can change your mind in Recently deleted until the purge. If kept, the purge builds a .zip with every md file, all their versions and the change history (no attachments). Company admins download or delete it in Admin → Archives of deleted projects; it stays until an admin deletes it and counts as storage.
Don't want to wait 30 days? A company admin presses Delete now on the project's row and types its key to confirm. The project is deleted for good at once; within a few minutes its key is free for a new project and its file storage is released. This cannot be undone and is recorded in the audit log. Project admins can restore, but not delete now.
Can I move a project to another company?
Yes — company admins of both companies, in the web app only (not over MCP), for any company type. In the project's company, an admin opens Project settings → Move to another company and presses Make transfer key: a 16-character key (XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX) for that one project, valid for 7 days and usable once; make a new one to replace it, or revoke it. Send the key to the other company's admin, who clicks Create project → Start with → Import from another company, enters the key (only the project's name is shown), picks a new name and project key and presses Send request. The board type, columns and environments come from the source project.
Nothing moves until a company admin of the source approves. Each of them gets an email with the requesting company, the person who asked and the new key, and chooses Approve… or Reject (with an optional reason); the requester can withdraw the request before it is answered. Approving uses up the key, declines other requests made with it and starts the move: the source project is read-only for everyone until it finishes, and both sides see the progress with a clock and counts. Tick the box to delete the project in the source company once it has moved, and it is deleted the usual way afterwards (restorable for 30 days).
- What moves: the latest version of every issue under the new key with the same numbers (APP-12 → NEW-12; keys in links and text are rewritten), comments and replies, sprints (a running sprint has to be started again), the burndown history, the project brief and working notes, attached files and inline images
- What stays behind: members, teams, watchers, agent tokens, handoffs, the company brief, the audit log and older versions of the files. Every issue arrives unassigned with the original reporter and assignee named at the end of its description, comments keep the original author's name as text, and the requester becomes the new project's admin
- The receiving company's usual limits apply: a 3rd project, or attachments above 10 GB, need a verified email and a complete tax profile (or an active coupon for projects), and the company's storage ceiling still applies — checked when asking and again when the move starts
- If the move fails, nothing is kept in the receiving company, the source project can be edited again, and the source admin makes a new key to try again
- Emails and in-app notifications at every step: request, approved or rejected, finished (with a report of issues, comments and files) or failed. A request not answered while the key is valid expires
