What are task tags?

Task tags are reusable text snippets that you can quickly insert into task descriptions by typing @ followed by the tag name. When you select a tag, its content is automatically inserted at your cursor position.
Task tags use snake_case naming (no spaces allowed). For example: bug_report, feature_request, or code_review_checklist.

​
Managing task tags

Access task tags from Settings → General → Task Tags. Tags are available globally across all projects in your workspace.

Edit existing tags

Click the edit icon (✏️) next to any tag to modify its name or content.

Insert task tags into task descriptions and follow-up messages using @mention autocomplete.
