Update and Reassign Tasks via Email

Update Task Details via Email

You can easily update task details or add comments via email. Just add “RE:” and the task’s name* in the email’s subject line, then:

• If you want to share the task with someone, add their emails in the “CC:” field.
• Add new start and end dates in square brackets to reschedule a task.
• Add the new status in square brackets at the end of the subject line. For Custom Statuses: add “CS: ” before a statuses name**.
• Write your comment in the email’s body.
• Add any images or files which you want to attach to a task.

When the email has all the necessary details, send it to “wrike@wrike.com” and all updates will show up in Wrike.

* If you have multiple tasks with the same name, add the name of the Folder where the task lives in square brackets at the beginning of the Subject line.

** Custom Statuses are case sensitive.

Reassign a Task via Email

To change a task’s assignee:

• Add “Fwd:” in the email’s subject line.
• Add the new assignee's email and wrike@wrike.com in the “To:” field.
• Write your comment in the email’s body.

Send the email and the task will be reassigned.
