It would be extremely valuable to have the ability to group views together in a project’s top navigation bar.

As projects grow, the number of views naturally increases to support different workflows and use cases. Without grouping, the top bar becomes cluttered and harder to manage. Being able to organize related views into collapsible or clearly separated groups would significantly improve clarity and usability.

In addition, it would be very helpful to introduce permissions at the view level. This would allow teams to better manage ownership, prevent accidental changes, and tailor visibility based on roles

This feature has been requested multiple times in the past, but hasn’t received much attention. I’m opening this new discussion to better understand the current status of this request and whether it’s being considered.

The following discussions have asked similar features

• Feature request: Organize/group together views #112631
• Enable Grouping of Views #158833
• Feature Request: Ability to Group Project Views by Color, Icon, or Main View #132633

Given the recurring demand, this seems to be a real and ongoing need across teams. Improved view grouping and permissions would greatly enhance project organization and scalability.
