Overview
Assign tasks to team members to clarify ownership and make it easy to find your work. Assignment works alongside the creator field — a task’s creator and assignee can be different people.Assigning a Task
You can assign a task when creating a todo or at any time afterward:- Open a todo task.
- Click the assignee dropdown (or press Cmd + A).
- Select a workspace member from the list.
Assignment is available for todo tasks. When a todo is launched, it keeps its assignment. If no one is assigned when a todo is launched, the person who launched it becomes the assignee automatically.
Reassigning
To change who a task is assigned to, open the assignee dropdown and select a different person. There’s no confirmation step — the reassignment happens instantly.Unassigning
Select Unassigned from the assignee dropdown to remove the current assignment. The task remains in the workspace but won’t appear under anyone’s “Assigned to me” filter.Filtering by Assignee
Use the filter dropdown above the task list to focus on relevant work:| Filter | Shows |
|---|---|
| All | Every task in the workspace. |
| You | Tasks you created. |
| Assigned to me | Tasks assigned to you. |
| Others | Tasks created by other members. |
