Priorities

Priorities help you triage your backlog. Set urgency levels so the most important work surfaces first during planning.

Set priority

Priorities range from 1 (urgent) to 4 (low). Unset is 0.

xpo update <id> --priority 1

Or set it when creating an issue via JSON:

echo '{"title": "Critical fix", "priority": 1}' | xpo add --json

Priority levels

In the web board

Priorities are visible in the issue detail panel and can be set from the board's property editor. Issues can be sorted by priority in the backlog view.
