Project and task templates

Save a project as a template, what gets copied, and how date offsets work.

Save a template

  1. Open the project → ⋯ → Save as template.
  2. Choose what to include: statuses, fields, views, automations, tasks, and whether assignees carry over.
  3. Decide whether it is yours or shared with the workspace.

Dates become offsets

Absolute dates in a template are stored as offsets from the start date. A kickoff on day 0 and a launch on day 30 stay thirty days apart wherever the new project starts, so you never paste a project full of dates from last year.

Task templates

A single task can be a template too — useful for anything with a checklist somebody keeps rebuilding from memory. Create one from any task with ⋯ → Save as task template, then insert it with C then T.
