Tabs allows you to view your projects exactly how you want.
Built to make it easy to find the info you are looking for, Tabs combines Hive's project views with customizable filters and a simple bookmarking system to give you the flexibility and control you need to track your projects from start to finish.
Creating a new Tab
To use Tabs, open a project in your workspace. You will notice a few changes to the top navigation bar.
The current project view (in this case, Status View), will be the one you used most recently. To create a new tab with an additional view, click the "+" icon.
The menu has two columns: Project views for action layouts such as List, Status, Calendar, and Matrix, and Apps for adding app content to your project tabs. Select an option to see its description, enter a view name, choose whether to make it private where available, and select Add.

Add an app as a project tab
Use the Apps column in the same + menu to keep app content alongside your project views. Options include Notes, Dashboards, Workflows, Canvas, Risks/Issues, and
Web Page.
Open your project and select + beside its tabs.
Choose an option under Apps.
Enter a name for the tab and review the options shown for that app.
Select Add, then complete any setup shown for the selected app.
For more detail on specific apps:
Notes: See “Access a Note in a project” for choosing a note to display as a tab.
Dashboards: Learn the difference between a blank dashboard, a linked dashboard, and a copy.
Workflows: Learn how to create and manage automations.
Canvas: Learn how to map ideas, connect cards, and organize project plans.
Risks/Issues: Learn how to track risks and issues associated with a project.
Add a Web Page tab
Use a Web Page tab to display a website alongside your project views.
Select + beside your project tabs, then choose Web Page under Apps.
Enter a tab name. Turn on Private view if you want the tab to be visible only to you, then select Add.
In the new tab, select Configure.
Paste the website’s full HTTPS address into the URL field, then click outside the field to save it.
To change the website later, open Configure and update the URL. The tab creator, project owner, or a workspace admin can edit this setting.
Why won’t the website load?
The website must use HTTPS and allow embedding in another page (iframing). Some websites block this, so not every website can be displayed inside Hive. Check the URL in Configure, or select Open in external browser on the error screen to visit the website separately.
Web Page tabs cannot display the embedded website on mobile. Select Open in Browser to open the page separately.
Customizing a Tab
In order to customize each individual tab, click on the tab you'd like to customize and a menu represented by 3 dots will appear next to the title of the tab. From this menu you have a few options.
Set as default view
Makes the selected tab the default view you will see when you enter the project. Only Project Owners and Admins can change the default view.
Make private
Makes the tab you created private only to you.
Rename
Allows for the tab to be renamed.
Move left
Moves the tab left one space in the tabs order.
Move right
Moves the tab right one space in the tabs order.
Delete
Deletes the tab.
Private Tabs
Private tabs will be clearly marked with an icon of an eye with a cross through it.
When a tab is set to private, only the creator of the tab will be able to see it in the tabs list.
Saving Custom Filters
In each tab, you will have filtering options that are determined by the selected view. Under the "Configure" button in the top right, make the customizations that you would like. Once a setting is changed in this menu, a new option to save your filter settings will appear.
Save filter to current view
Clicking this option will save the current filter settings to the tab you are currently viewing
Save filter to new view
Clicking this option will create a new tab with the saved filter settings
Discard filter changes
Clicking this option will reset the filter settings to the last saved state
FAQ
What will happen to previously created projects?
Any projects you have saved in your workspace prior to the launch of Tabs will stay exactly how they are. You can now add additional tabs for easy switching between views and saved filter settings.
How many tabs can I have in each project?
There is no limit to the amount of tabs you can have per project.
When I create a new tab, or new custom filters, will they affect all of my projects?
No. Any tabs or the respective filter settings are specific to the project where they are created. Other projects will not be affected.
Who can see the private tabs I have created?
Only the creator of the private tab can see it.
