Taska

Link to a task and the “Share” button

Updated:

Every task in Taska has a permanent link. The “Share” button in the task window or “Copy link” in the card menu copies it. The link keeps working even after the task is moved.

  1. Open the task.
  2. In the bottom row of the window, click the “Share” button. It has no label: it's the icon with three dots connected by lines. It's usually the second button from the left, right after the trash can.
The task window: in the bottom row, the Share button with three connected dots is numbered 2

Taska shows the notification “Task link copied”. Paste the link into an email, a messenger or a knowledge base article. The link looks like taska.be/app/t/ followed by a short task code.

On a phone, the “Share” button is at the bottom of the task fields tab, and it copies the link too.

  1. Right-click the task card.
  2. Choose “Copy link”.

In the same menu, “Open in a new tab” opens the task in a new browser tab. The right-click menu is available only on a computer.

  • The link opens the task where it is now: on a board, in the “Inbox” or in a service desk. If the task was moved to another board or project, the link still works.
  • Only people with access to the task can open it. Everyone else sees “Task not found”, and Taska opens “Today”.
  • If someone isn't signed in to Taska, the sign-in form opens first. After signing in, Taska shows the task right away.
  • In the Android app, links to Taska open directly in the app.
A link to a chat message

In the message menu, choose “Copy link”. This link opens the task and scrolls the chat to that message. See “Task chat: replies, mentions and reactions” for more about the message menu.

A teammate sees “Task not found”

Your teammate has no access to the project, board or service desk where the task lives. Invite them to the space or the project, see “How to invite teammates by email”. This also happens if the task was deleted. You can restore a deleted task from the trash within 30 days, see “How to delete and restore a task”.

How to keep a task at hand

To get back to a task quickly, click the “Add to favorites” star in the bottom row of the task window. The task appears on the “Favorites” screen. See “How to use Favorites”.
