## Parameter Reference Pages

**[Plans (Columns) Parameters](/planningboard/reference/widget-parameters/plans-parameters)** — Parameters that control which Plans appear as columns on the board, including Plan queries, Plans mode selection, and Plan range filtering.

**[Swimlanes (Rows) Parameters](/planningboard/reference/widget-parameters/swimlanes-parameters)** — Parameters that define how work items are grouped into swimlanes: the swimlane assignment type, sort order, and filtering rules.

**[Work Items Parameters](/planningboard/reference/widget-parameters/work-items-parameters)** — Parameters that specify which work items are loaded onto the board, including work item type filters and item queries.

**[Capacity Parameters](/planningboard/reference/widget-parameters/capacity-parameters)** — Parameters for configuring capacity bars per swimlane, the capacity field used for effort, and capacity normalization behaviour.

**[UI and Display Parameters](/planningboard/reference/widget-parameters/ui-parameters)** — Parameters controlling card content, board appearance, and highlighting rules (for example, items planned after their due date).

**[SAFe Parameters](/planningboard/reference/widget-parameters/safe-parameters)** — Parameters specific to SAFe planning modes, including SAFe Sprints, Program Increments, and Solution Trains.

**[Advanced Parameters](/planningboard/reference/widget-parameters/advanced-parameters)** — Scripting hooks and low-level override parameters for custom card rendering, item scripts, and configuration scripts.

<Tip title="Whitespace sensitivity">
  Capacity configuration parameters are whitespace-sensitive. Copy parameter values exactly as shown in the reference pages — leading or trailing spaces can produce unexpected results.
