Task actions

Capacities Pro

Managing tasks and to-dos is an integral part of knowledge management. Capacities' task actions allow you to send tasks from Capacities to your task manager of choice. This way, you can keep track of your tasks in your dedicated task manager, rather than having them distributed throughout different apps.

Task actions are an alternative to the built-in task management feature in Capacities. Task actions are great for you if you want a dedicated place to manage your tasks, organize them in projects, boards, and lists, and collaborate with your team.

Capacities currently support first-class integrations to the following task management apps:

If your task manager is not supported, you can use a webhook action. If you would like your task manager to be integrated into Capacities, please vote or comment on our community announcement. We will prioritize the task managers with the most votes.

How does it work?

After you have defined your task actions a small paper plane icon will appear next to each To-Do in Capacities.

You can create a to-do block by typing /todo + enter" or "[] + space".

You can click on the icon (or on the dropdown if you defined multiple task actions) to send the To-Do to your task manager.

You can also quickly use the shortcut Option + Enter (Mac) or Alt + Enter (Windows) to send the To-Do to your default task manager or Option + Shift + Enter (Mac) or Alt + Shift + Enter (Windows) to open the dropdown and select a task action.
