Reference

You will find quick lookup material for everyday Tixio use.

This page collects the references most users need day to day. Use the detailed pages below when you need the full table or syntax list.

Detailed reference pages

  • API key scopes documents scope names, empty-scope behavior, REST and MCP mappings, and common combinations.
  • Filter query language documents supported search and saved-view tokens with examples.
  • Keyboard shortcuts documents global shortcuts, shortcut overlay behavior, and platform differences.
  • Notification event types documents notification kinds, common recipients, delivery modes, defaults, and exceptions.
  • AI assistant capabilities documents assistant shortcuts, slash commands, prompt examples, read/write safeguards, Slack chat, and settings.

Keyboard shortcuts

Press ? outside a text field to open the keyboard shortcut overlay. The list is context-aware, so available shortcuts can vary by screen.

Useful global shortcuts:

Action macOS Windows/Linux
Open search / command palette Cmd+K Ctrl+K
Toggle AI assistant Cmd+J Ctrl+J
Collapse or expand sidebar Cmd+B Ctrl+B
Open shortcut help ? ?
Close overlay or dialog Escape Escape

Search and filter terms

The command palette searches issues, comments, and projects. Saved views and issue surfaces can use structured filters such as:

type:bug
assigned_to:me
created_by:me
status:todo|in_progress
cycle:current
cycle:active
project:platform|website
label:customer-request
estimated:true

Use quotes when a value contains spaces:

label:"customer request"

Use saved views for searches you repeat often. Choose the surface that matches the work: list for scanning, board for flow, table for many fields, calendar for dates, and timeline for schedules.

For the full syntax, read Filter query language.

Markdown basics

Descriptions and comments support practical Markdown:

## Heading

- Bullet
- Another bullet

1. First step
2. Second step

**Bold text**
`inline code`

[Link text](https://example.com)

Use Markdown for acceptance criteria, reproduction steps, decisions, and links that should stay with the issue.

Use @ mentions when a teammate needs to see a comment or description update. Mention suggestions show workspace members by name.

Bare issue keys such as TIXI-123 become links in descriptions and comments. Use issue keys when you want to connect related work without creating a formal relationship.

Notifications

Use notifications for work you own, watch, or are mentioned in. Tune notifications when the inbox becomes noisy.

Common notification sources include:

  • Assignments, comments, and direct mentions.
  • Issue status, due date, or cycle changes.
  • Watched issue updates.
  • Workspace or project invitations.
  • GitHub, Slack, Jira, or webhook activity when integrations are enabled.

For the full event reference, read Notification event types.

AI assistant

Use the assistant to search, summarize, generate status reports, and prepare controlled changes from chat.
