Creating labels

Labels in Yetto are hierarchical. You can have a status label with options for status.on_hold, status.waiting, and any others that your team needs. Each label can have any number of parents and children to make them as detailed or as broad as you want for the way you and your team operate. You can read a little about how they can be used in this blog post about statuses.

To get you started, we give each inbox a handful of default labels that we think will be generally useful for most support teams. They are:

  • bug
  • documentation
  • documentation.guide
  • documentation.reference
  • feature-request
  • feature-request.planned
  • feature-request.in-discussion
  • feature-request.wontfix
  • status
  • status.solved
  • status.solved.no-response
  • status.solved.bugfix
  • status.solved.workaround
  • status.solved.education
  • status.solved.user-error
  • status.waiting-on
  • status.waiting-on.engineering
  • status.waiting-on.review
  • status.waiting-on.product
