# Work in a Kanban View

Narrow the records you want to focus on by searching and filtering a kanban view, and view records by record type. Update records by dragging, or edit a card without leaving the kanban view. If your Salesforce admin has set up key fields and guidance, you see them in the details panel. If you’re viewing opportunities, alerts help you move deals ahead.
