Is there a way to add custom fields in a dashboard filter view?

[Scott Batt]

We are moving to using more custom fields because we have maxed out our label usage, but we need to have the ability to sort by these custom fields in the dashboard view to be able to shift this way from using Labels. It does not look that we can filter by custom field, does anyone know of a power up or a way to turn this on?  Thanks in advance.

Hi Scott, welcome to the community.

I understand that you are referring to your board when you say dashboard. If so, I'm afraid that there isn't a filter specifically for custom fields.

We do have a suggestion open for this that you can follow here: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/TRELLO-163

As an alternative, currently, you can use the default cards filtering functionality on a board by searching specific keywords written within a custom field.
