I'm looking to have the Description field shown as a column in a list view. It doesn't seem to be a field I can add (only a "Short Description" field is available. I've also been told it's not available to add as a Global Field. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Hi @Miriam Karlin , That's not supported currently. You can only view those directly in the idea. You can create a field of type "Short text" and add it to views, but it'll have a limit of 255 characters.
