Collapsible sections

Formatting toolbar showing the collapsible section icon that you can select to turn a section of text into a collapsible section

Collapsible sections⁠

Keep long documents and descriptions tidy with collapsible sections. Conceal supporting details and notes so that they're hidden by default but available to anyone who wants to read them. Create a collapsible section by typing the command /collapsible, using the text shortcut >>>, or selecting text and applying formatting.

The user highlights text with a list underneath it. The formatting toolbar has popped up, and the user's pointer cursor is hovered over the collapse button, with the expectation they will press it and then turn this section into a collapsed section with the title "Security considerations"

Initiative grouping⁠

We’ve added new grouping options for Initiatives. Group initiatives by team, owner, and health to scan and navigate larger lists of product initiatives efficiently.
