Task management
How to create, assign, and track tasks across your campaigns in HubSlot.
The Tasks section in HubSlot is a Kanban board for managing work items across your workspace. Tasks can be created manually or auto-generated in step 3 of the campaign creation wizard. Each workspace has one Kanban with one or more boards.
Task fields
- Title: required. The name of the work item.
- Description: optional free-text notes.
- Priority: Low, Medium, High, or Urgent.
- Due date: optional. If the task is linked to a campaign, a warning appears if the due date falls outside the campaign date range.
- Tags: comma-separated labels for grouping and filtering.
- Assignee: any member of the workspace.
- Campaign: optional link to a campaign. Linked tasks are also visible in the campaign detail.
- Subtasks: a checklist within the task. Each subtask has a title and can be toggled complete independently.
Create a task
- Go to Tasks in the sidebar.
- Click Add Task inside any column, or use the quick-add field at the bottom of a column.
- Fill in the title (required) and any optional fields, then click Create.
Boards
A workspace Kanban can have multiple boards. The default board is called "General". Additional boards can be created and optionally linked to a specific campaign. Use the board selector in the header to switch between boards.
Tasks from campaigns
When creating a campaign, step 3 of the wizard lets you add task templates that are automatically created as items on the Kanban board. These tasks are linked to the campaign and filtered accordingly.
