Add task to a project

Tasks are the building blocks of your project work. They help you break down milestones into specific, actionable items that can be assigned, tracked, and completed by team members.

Adding a task#

1. Open the project page and go to the Tasks tab
2. Find the milestone you want to add a task to and click the + icon, or press the ‘c’ key as a shortcut
3. Enter a name for your task
4. Click/tap Add

Adding tasks from the milestone page#

You can also create tasks directly from a milestone page:

1. Open the milestone page
2. Click the + icon in the tasks section, or press the ‘c’ key as a shortcut
3. Enter a name for your task
4. Click Add to create the task

Managing tasks#

Once created, you can:

• Assign to team members to clarify ownership and responsibility
• Set due date to coordinate timing and dependencies
• Add a description to provide additional context and requirements
• Update status as work progresses (Not started → In progress → Done, or Canceled if no longer needed)
• Move between milestones if project scope or organization changes

This approach helps you maintain clear visibility into who’s doing what and when, while keeping work organized under the appropriate milestones.
