Project Tasks are quick to-dos you can add to a Project — a simple way to track one-off punch list items without setting up a full Checklist. You can add a Task from the Project itself, attach one to a specific photo or video, or create one on the go from My Stuff.
Note: Project Tasks are best for simple, one-off to-dos — up to 100 per Project. If you need to capture detailed field information, step-by-step instructions, or assign work to specific Users, use a Checklist instead.

Adding a Task within the Project view
Log in to CompanyCam.
Open the Project you'd like to add a Task for.
Click the collapsible Sidebar Icon on the right if it's collapsed.
Under the Tasks section, click + New Task and type your Task. Press Enter or click + New Task again to add more.
Adding a Task to a photo or video
Note: When you create a Task from a photo or video, that photo or video becomes the Task's reference photo. Anything you add to the Task afterward goes on top of it — the reference photo itself can't be removed.
Open the Project and select a photo or video, then click + New Task, type your Task, and press Enter. The Task appears with a thumbnail of that photo or video in the Project's general Tasks section.
Marking a Task complete
Click the Circle Icon next to a Task to mark it complete. Completed Tasks automatically move to the Show Completed section, which displays as Hide Completed once expanded.
Attaching a photo or video to a Task
Under the Tasks section, click + Icon next to the task you'd like to add media to. You can upload new photos or videos, or choose existing media from the Project. Click Confirm to attach the photo or video.
While a video is still uploading, a cloud icon and video overlay show it hasn't finished processing yet.
