Whiteboards help teams turn ideas, plans, references, and discussion into a persistent visual workspace connected to the rest of their space. Start with the overview, explore the part of the board you need, or follow a complete journey from creation through collaborative review.
The explorer keeps each board visibly connected to the space area that owns it.
Start Here
•
Whiteboards - Understand where boards live, how their linked drafts work, who can create or edit, and how the workspace continues through Docs and meetings.
Understand The Board
•
Board Tools and Objects - Choose between text, notes, tasks, diagrams, freehand marks, structured data, workspace references, images, and visual signals.
•
Collaboration and Context - Learn how live presence, personal undo, participants, the linked Article, Comments, annotations, meetings, persistence, and PNG export fit together.
Build And Enrich A Board
•
Create and Open a Whiteboard - Choose the right area, create from Whiteboard or Documents, understand the paired draft, and verify that the same board reopens.
•
Build a Visual Plan - Combine text, tasks, shapes, attached connectors, freehand review marks, selection, ordering, and history into a readable plan.
•
Add Data and Workspace References - Add an editable table, useful charts, source-linked workspace cards, media, visual markers, and an Award when appropriate.
Collaborate And Share
•
Collaborate, Review, and Export - Prepare a shared review, work visibly with others, attach feedback, use the linked panels, reopen the result, and export a framed PNG snapshot.
•
Collaborate with Live Apps in a Meeting - Put an existing or new Whiteboard on an activity meeting stage, choose a layout, switch work, and close the shared feed without deleting the board.
