Create a project view ​

POST/api/v2/workspaces/{slug}/projects/{project_id}/views/

Project views are saved filter-and-layout combinations for a project. Create a project view.

Path parameters ​

slug:requiredstring

The workspace slug. It appears in your Plane URLs. In https://app.plane.so/my-team/projects/, the slug is my-team.

project_id:requiredstring

The project the resource belongs to. Accepts the project UUID or its bare identifier, for example ENG.

Body parameters ​

name:requiredstring

The view's display name.

Maximum 255 characters.

access:optionalstring

Who can see the view: 0 for private, 1 for public.

description:optionalstring

Free-form description.

display_filters:optionalstring

Saved display options: grouping, ordering and layout.

display_properties:optionalstring

Display properties saved with the view.

filters:optionalstring

Saved filter set, in the same shape the list endpoints accept.

is_locked:optionalboolean

Prevents further edits to the content.

logo_props:optionalstring

Logo descriptor managed by the Plane editor. Send back the value you read instead of building it by hand.

pql_filters:optionalstring

Saved filters, written in PQL.

sort_order:optionalnumber

Manual ordering weight. Lower sorts first.

Response shaping ​

fields:optionalstring

Comma-separated list of fields to return. Fields you don't request are left out of the response instead of coming back as null. id is always included. Pass all to get every requestable field. An unknown field name returns 400. See Sparse fields.

Requestable here: access, archived_at, created_at, created_by_id, description, display_filters, display_properties, filters, id, is_locked, logo_props, name, owned_by_id, pql_filters, query, sort_order, updated_at, updated_by_id.

expand:optionalstring

Comma-separated relations to embed: owned_by.

Expanded objects get their own key: ?expand=state keeps state_id and adds a state object next to it. ?fields= and ?expand= work independently. Naming a relation in ?fields= returns 400, and field filtering never removes an expanded object. See Expanding relations.
