Tasks

In the context of project management, a task is a piece of work that has a time element associated with it. In Sitecore Content Hub, there are several types of tasks. Examples of tasks are:

  • Upload images from a photoshoot.

  • Change the layout of a page.

  • Annotate content.

  • Review and approve a piece of artwork.

Tasks are listed on the Tasks page or on the Tasks tab within a project or stage.

Important

You must have the necessary permissions for your tasks to display on the Tasks page.

The following example shows the Tasks page.

Project managers can create tasks on the Tasks tab in a basic project or in a stage of a multi-stage project, and perform actions on tasks - such as editing details and reassigning a task - from the Tasks page. Task assignees can use the Tasks page to view tasks they have been assigned, and select a task to complete.

  • Red - these tasks are Declined. They have been rejected by the assignee.

  • Green - these tasks are Done. They are complete.

  • Blue - these tasks are In progress. They have been accepted and are under way.

  • Grey - these tasks are Waiting or Assigned. They are pending and have not yet started.
