To add it, select the “+New” button in the right corner of your board. Then, at the bottom of the resulting menu, select “More columns”. Find and select “Item ID” once you’re in the Column Center. Each piece on your board will then exhibit a unique number as indicated below:
Settings
If you hover over your column header and select the blue dropdown button to the right, you will discover that the first menu option is Column Settings. You have the option to copy either the item’s ID number or its URL when you select Column Settings.
Customizing the ID
