# Property Canvas & Checklists

> Keep track of free form notes and checklists at the property.

Abisko enables users to effectively annotate, tag and organize information for different purposes within a property. This includes searchable, time-based **notes** as well as a flexible **canvas** for more free-form annotations and checklists.

## Canvas

The **Canvas** widget allows users to collaboratively manage free-form (non–time-based) notes and checklists in a shared workspace where all users can easily view and edit content.

<Tip>
  The **Canvas** is useful for jotting down ideas associated with the property and for quickly creating checklists of small tasks that other users can easily view, track and interact with.
</Tip>

For example, the canvas can be used to track:

* **Utility meter sync workflows**
  * *Checklists for verifying credentials and data flows*
* **Ideas related to decarbonization strategies**
  * *Bullet points of proposed decarbonization measures*
* **Generic notes about the property**
  * *External IDs, credentials, notes*

***

## Use the Canvas

**Navigate to Property → Click on \[Canvas] button in the top-right of the property banner**

### **To add or edit notes**

1. Click on the first blank row on the canvas
2. Type ' / ' to view keyboard shortcut or click the ' + ' icon that appears to the left of the row over which the mouse hovers

   <Note>
     It can take a little practice to learn how to properly format different styles of notes in the property canvas, but once learned, it opens many possibilities for collaboration.
   </Note>
3. Select the format for your note
   * e.g. Text, Header, Bullet List, Checklist
4. Fill out the note and click **Save**
