Build a Timeline View in Fibery

Add a Timeline View, choose the databases and date fields, and decide what each lane represents. A date range is usually simpler than separate start and finish fields.

Before you start: Have a Feature database and a Date Range field. Free-plan Timeline use is private; confirm the plan supports the audience you intend.

Worked example: Plan an Invite flow Feature from November 10–14 and a Roles review from November 17–18. Use one item per lane during review so names and boundaries are readable.

Step-by-step guide

01

Create the Timeline

Click + beside the Space and select Timeline. Choose Feature for the rows shown on the View.

02

Select the date source

Choose the Feature Date Range field. If none exists, use the Dates selector’s + Create new Date Field action.

03

Configure readable lanes

Use Items to choose lane settings and one entity per lane when reviewing individual commitments. Use Fields to show responsibility.

04

Schedule the backlog

Open Backlog and drag an undated sample Feature onto the timeline. Open it afterwards to inspect the resulting date range.

05

Check how edits persist

Drag a bar edge to change one boundary, then its middle to move the whole range. Record tentative dates as tentative in the Feature description.

Common mistakes

Assuming undated work is lost

Undated entities are available in Backlog; final-state items are excluded from that panel.

How this works

  1. We save what you typed. No AI runs on this page.
  2. You create a free account.
  3. Vantage builds a PRD from it inside your own workspace.

Why ask for an account? We’re a small team, and a full generation runs a multi-step AI pipeline that costs us real money. So we tie it to a free account instead of running it anonymously. You also get to keep the result and edit it.

Your text is only used to create your project, and it stays private to your account. If you don’t sign up, we delete it after 7 days. Privacy policy
