Where tasks come from
A task is created from a source entity:Plan approvals are the primary live source today; the alert- and recommendation-sourced
tasks are rolling out. Either way, the inbox is the single place to see open work.
Status & priority
Tasks also carry a priority: low, medium (default), high, or urgent.
Working with the inbox
1
Open Tasks
Go to Apps → Tasks to see open and in-progress work for your organization.
2
Act from the source
Click a task to jump to its source — e.g. the approvals queue
for a plan approval — and make the decision there.
3
Stay in sync
Use Refresh to re-sync the inbox from all sources. A task closes automatically once
its source is resolved (e.g. the approval is decided).
The navbar shows a badge with your count of open + in-progress tasks. Tasks are
organization-scoped.
