Add a task to a project

Three ways to add a task to a project in Wonderly.

Tasks help you break project work into actionable steps and assign ownership across your team. You can add tasks when first building a project, or at any point after a project is already underway.

Method 1: Add a task when creating a new project

When to use: You are starting a brand new project and want to build out its tasks right away.

1. Click + Create New in the top-left corner.

2. Click Project.

3. Fill in your project details.

4. Click Create.

5. Inside the new project, click + Task.

Expected outcome: The task is saved to your project and ready to be built out with details, assignees, and dates.

Method 2: Assign an existing task to a project

1. Open the task.

2. In the task modal, click the Project dropdown on the right-hand side.

3. Select the project you want to add the task to.

4. Changes are saved automatically.

Method 3: Add a new task directly inside an existing project

When to use: Your project already exists and you want to create a net-new task from within it.

1. Click Projects in the left panel.

2. Open the workspace where your project lives, then click the project to open it.

3. Inside the new project, click + Task, and fill in your task details.

Expected outcome: The task is added to the project and visible to anyone with access.
