How to add a new metric

You can create your own metric or edit the existing ones. To make prioritization easier you can select from multiple metrics types:

  • ⭐️ Rating - creates 5 stars rating

  • 🏷 Label - creates a set of labels with custom names and colours

  • ✏️ Short text - creates a dropdown with text values (same as Labels but without the colours)

  • Number - Creates the field that accepts a number input (non-decimal values)
