Favorites
Star a record, a note or an email in Syncek, see where each favorite shows up, and who else sees it.
A favorite in Syncek is a record, note or email you have marked with the star. A starred record comes first in its object's tables and appears under Favorites in the sidebar. Stars on records and notes are shared with the whole workspace. A star on an email is yours alone and matches the star in Gmail. Anyone but a Guest can star. Stars replaced pins in September 2026.
Starring a record
In an object's table, the star sits in the column right after the checkbox. Click it to star the record, and click it again to take the star off. Starred records come first in every table view of that object, whatever its sort, and the rest follow in the view's order. A board keeps its own card order, and the table of a list has no star column.
The star belongs to the team, not to you: everyone sees it, and taking it off takes it off for everyone. A star is not a field, so a view cannot filter or sort by it.
Favorites in the sidebar
Favorites, below Records and Lists in the sidebar, shows up to 50 starred records from every object, the most recently starred first, each with its object's icon. Click one to open its record page. Until something is starred, it reads No favorites yet.
Notes
A note's star is shared with the workspace too. Click it on the Notes page, in the column after the checkbox or on the note's card, or on the card in a record's Notes tab. On that tab, starred notes come first under a Favorites heading. See Notes.
Emails
An email's star is personal. It marks a conversation in your own mailbox, and nobody else sees it. To star one:
- Click the star beside it in Inbox or any other list under Folders.
- Open it and click the star next to Reply.
- Select several and click Favorite. In Favorites the button reads Unfavorite.
Favorites, under Folders in the Emails area, lists only the conversations you have starred. In the other lists a star does not move an email up. Syncek keeps the star in step with Gmail: star a conversation in Syncek and it is starred in Gmail, and the other way round. An email moved to Archived leaves Favorites until you turn on Show archived in View settings.
Email templates have a shared star as well. See Email templates.
