Changing Space Default Workflow
Space admins can set workflows in spaces they manage.
In space settings, you can define separate default workflows for all projects and tasks that users create in the space.
You can also define a set of recommended workflows. They'll appear in a separate list.
Note
Projects and tasks can have only one default workflow each in a single space.
When you set up the default workflow for projects or tasks:
-
It is applied to new projects or tasks created in the space.
-
New tasks and projects created in the space automatically get the first status from the active group of the corresponding workflow.
Important
Make sure that there is at least one custom workflow in your account before you proceed. If the only workflow in your account is the default one you won’t see the Workflows tab in the menu. Learn about how to create a custom workflow here.
