Quick task capture in 2Done: turn a thought into a saved action

What this feature does

Quick capture records an action before you forget its context. A title identifies the outcome; the description holds supporting details. You choose the space and person responsible before submitting.

How to use it

Open the new-task action. Write a specific title, select the intended space, and check the responsible person. Add details, a deadline or checklist only when useful. Submit once and wait for the task to appear in that space.

A practical example

For “send proposal”, use “Send the revised proposal to Sara” as the title. Put the document location and acceptance criteria in the description rather than creating several indistinguishable tasks.

What to know before you start

Typing in the capture form does not create a shared task. Local drafts are not confirmation of a server save. A deadline and an enabled reminder are also separate settings.

Troubleshooting

If submission fails, keep the entered text and check the connection. Review the space for an existing saved item before retrying, so a slow response does not lead you to create a second task.
