Wikis offer a convenient way to share information with other project members by providing a single destination for workflows, how-to guides, and other project details.
In this overview, we’ll go over how to:
- Create a wiki
- Edit or duplicate a wiki
- Delete a wiki
- Send wiki notifications
Create a wiki
To create a wiki:
- Go to the project.
- Select “Wiki” from the menu on the left.
- Select the “Add wiki” button at the top right of the page.
- Fill in the required “Page name” and “Content” fields.
- Format your content using the markdown, tagging, and subpage information on the right side of the page. A table of contents is automatically created based on formatted headers.
- Attach or link to files.
- Check “Send email notification when created” to automatically notify project members about the new wiki.
- Preview the wiki or select “Submit” to publish it.
Edit or duplicate a wiki
To edit an existing wiki, select the “Edit” button at the top of the page.
To duplicate a wiki within the same project, select the “...” icon and then “Duplicate.” Wikis from different projects can’t be duplicated.
Delete a wiki
To permanently delete a wiki:
- Select the “Edit” button.
- Scroll to the bottom of the page.
- Select “Delete this page.”
- Confirm your decision.
Send wiki notifications
Notify project members when a wiki is added or updated.
- To send a notification for a new wiki, check “Send email notification when created” on the page.
- To send a notification for an updated wiki, check “Notify by email when updated” when editing the page.
Members must have email notifications enabled in their personal Backlog settings to get notifications.
