Hi everyone. I have a lists of tasks and I’ve connected each one to a larger project. I would like to set up a Kanban view by project - but I can’t seem to figure out how. Ideally I could see each project as a card, and then the connected tasks listed below in order of due date. See screenshots of how this is set up now, and how I’d like to see it from a Google doc. Huge thank you!

As a hack you can create a new single select field specifically for the kanban grouping. Something like:
Then selecting all the project cells and paste them into the new field. Before the copy:
After the paste:
The new field is now selectable when setting up your kanban view:
You’ll now see the grouping you’re after:
