The short version

Choose Mark for action on a comment, then use Assigned to to choose from the available assignees: teammates on Hub-linked work, or yourself outside a Hub. Select Mark as done when finished.

Turn feedback into a task with Mark for action. On Hub-linked work, you can assign a comment to a teammate. Outside a Hub, you can assign it to yourself.

Assign a comment

  1. Mark it for action. Open the comment controls and choose Mark for action. This makes the comment a task and reveals Assigned to.
  2. Assign it. Open Assigned to and choose from the available assignees. On Hub-linked work, you can choose a teammate. Outside a Hub, you can assign only yourself.
  3. Track and complete it. For comments on Hub-linked work, the task appears in that Hub’s Action items. Choose Mark as done when the work is complete.
Good to know

Assigning works on both plain comments and pinned comments. To see every task for a project in one place, see How do I track action items in a Hub?. To leave the comment in the first place, see How do I comment on a design in Canvas?.
