Knowledge Board

A Knowledge Board in IMBRACE allows users to manage information in a structured, table-based format, similar to a spreadsheet or database. Each board contains customizable fields that define the type of information stored in each record. This structure enables teams to organize knowledge, media, and references in a consistent and searchable format.

Knowledge Boards are particularly useful for managing structured content such as product knowledge, technical references, analytics data, and operational records. Users can add records, attach media, include video links, and organize information using tags and custom fields.
