Tasks and task lists

Every task lives in a task list. Split work your way and switch between views.

Create a task list

  1. 1

    In the sidebar, find Tasks and click Create task list.

  2. 2

  3. 3

    Under Stored in, choose Private or a teamspace.

    Click Create task list.

A private list is only visible to you, including every task in it. In a teamspace, everyone in that teamspace can see the list and its tasks.

Add tasks

Click New task or Add task in a list. Each task can have a status, assignee, project, task list, client, start date and due date. Open the task details to write notes and leave comments.

Task statuses

  • To do
  • In progress
  • In review
  • Done

Views

Switch between List, Table, Board, Calendar and Timeline. In Board view, drag a task to another column to change its status.

Tasks linked to a project also appear under Project tasks. Deleting a task list moves all its tasks to Trash, where the whole list can be restored.
