As well as creating tasks on the Tasks screen, you can create them in context from Events, Posts (Activity Feed), and Projects. A contextually created task stays visible in its originating area and is also accessible from the Tasks table, where the icon in the Linked to column opens the source.
Create a task from an Event
- Open the Event.
- Go to the final step of the event, Overview, and open the Tasks tab.
- Click Create a task, fill in the task aligned to the event, and click Create.
- The task remains visible within the Event and also appears in the Tasks table. Click the icon in the Linked to column to open the Event from there.
Create a task from a Post (Activity Feed)
- Open the relevant Post from the Activity Feed.
- Click the Tasks icon on the post, then Create a task, and click Create.
- The task stays visible in the Post area and also appears in the Tasks table, with a link back to the Post.
Create a task from a Project
- In Projects, locate the relevant row.
- Click the Tasks icon on that row to open the Project Row panel, then click Create a task.
- Click Create. The task is tied to that Project row and is accessible from Tasks, where the Linked to icon opens the row.
How linkage works
- Contextually created tasks keep a persistent link to their source object.
- They appear both in the source area (the Event, Post, or Project) and in the central Tasks table.
- In the Tasks table, an icon in the Linked to column shows the task came from another object.
- Click that icon to open the source in a side panel. Clicking the row itself opens the task's own details instead.
