Child Card Groups
When a single card is complex and covers a set of activities that need to be completed, try a child card functionality. Child cards (subcards) are collected inside child card groups. It is located in the card elements section.
If you click on a child card in the child card group, it will open up.
When you want to create a child card group inside the card:
- Click + Add element.

Child card group.
- Type a name and click Add.
Now you can add child cards by clicking the + Add child card button.

You can convert the entire to-do list into a child card group. It will be created with the same name. You can choose a destination space and list where the child cards will be created.

To remove a child card group:
- Click on the three-dot menu button on the child card group top right corner.
- Select
Remove.
