Tasks overview

Track follow-ups, callbacks, and team to-dos next to the conversations they came from.

Tasks give your team a shared to-do list inside Helios (follow up with a lead, restock equipment, call a member back) so work that starts in a conversation doesn’t end up in a separate app. Each task can link to a contact and a conversation, carry a due date, and belong to a teammate.

Open Tasks in the sidebar (under INBOX) to see everything in one place.

The tasks board

Board and list views

The Tasks page has two layouts, switchable with the List / Board toggle in the top right (your choice is remembered):

  • Board: four columns, left to right: Snoozed, To do, In progress, Done. Drag cards between columns to change status.
  • List: the same tasks grouped into collapsible sections in workflow order: To do, In progress, Snoozed, then Done (collapsed by default). Section headers show counts, including how many are overdue.

The tasks list view

Every card and row shows the essentials at a glance: a complete checkbox, title, tags, due date, linked contact, and assignee, and in the list view you can change status, due date, snooze, and assignee inline without opening the task.

Search and filters

The bar above the board narrows things down:

Filter Options
Search Matches task titles
Status To do, In progress, Snoozed, Done (list view only)
Assignee Assigned to me, Unassigned, or any teammate
Due Overdue, Due today, Due this week
Tags Any tag used on your tasks

Clear all resets everything at once.

Tasks on the Inbox dashboard

The Inbox dashboard includes a My tasks column showing your open tasks (to do and in progress), so your day starts with conversations and follow-ups side by side. View all jumps to the Tasks page filtered to you.

Scope

Tasks belong to an inbox. Everyone with access to the inbox can see and work with its tasks, and switching inboxes switches the task list.
