task permission

Hello my great cummunity i just have a question

when i give one of my team members a task permission for edit tasks he owns, now he can assign task for others and if i don’t give him permission he can’t mark his task as completed !! is this a bug or there is something wrong i shouldn’t do

Hi @Yazeed,

If someone can edit tasks, they can also copmlete them, correct. As far as I know, these two are currently inseparable.

If you want to flag this with the product team and request a change, you can do so in the HubSpot Ideas section of the community: https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/idb-p/HubSpot_Ideas

These requests submitted to the HubSpot Ideas section of the community are reviewed by the HubSpot product team, based on their popularity and the assumed demand

Have a great day!

Hi @Yazeed ,
It sounds like you’re experiencing an unexpected behavior. To resolve this, please check the edit permission settings for your team member. Ensure that the permission is set to “Tasks they own.”

Here’s how you can verify this:

  1. Go to the permissions settings.
  2. Under the “Tasks” section, make sure “Edit” is set to “Tasks they own.”

If you give them edit permission for the tasks they own, they will be able to mark their tasks as complete.
Please refer to the screenshot below for more details:

i did that, he can create tasks even when its on “Tasks they own”

Hi @Yazeed,

To clarify, users with the “Task They Own” permission can create and assign tasks to others. However, once the task is assigned to another user, they will no longer have the ability to edit it since it is no longer under their ownership. They can only edit tasks they currently own.

For users with “View Only” permission, they won’t be able to make any changes to the task at all. This includes editing task details or marking the task as complete.
I hope this helps clarify things! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.
