Activities

Activities are the core unit of work and can represent anything you need to track, such as tasks, work items, issues, approvals or requests. They share one unified model.

Creating activities

Go to any inbox or topic, preferrable the one you want to assign the activity to just like you would go to a chat to send a message to.

Enter the input box at the bottom of the list. The new activity will automatically inherit the current inbox or topic. You can change or remove the assignment any time.

Type your title, if you want to create the activity as a draft it is not yet visible to the assignee, but the assignee is already linked.

Press Enter or the arrow up to create the activity

Managing activities

There is a fixed number of states an activity can have. There are no direct constraints on how you can switch between them.
The states are: Backlog, Draft and Open before work has started, In Progress, Waiting, Conflict and Blocked while work is done, Completed, Approved, Declined, Canceled or Duplicate when the activity has been resolved.

You can prioritize the activity as Urgent, High, Default or Low and define a work timeframe that includes an optional start date and deadline.

You can create child activities as well as linking related, blocking and duplicated activities.

For quick access from the sidebar, you can add an activity to your favorites.
