Create a task via email

Wrike’s patented e-mail integration helps you easily keep track of every e-mail with a task sent to your team members. You’ll never need to write separate e-mails asking for a status update anymore, nor will your team ever miss an action item in their cluttered inboxes!

The next time you want to assign a task to a teammate, simply create a new e-mail or forward an existing one to the colleague and add wrike at wrike.com to the "To" or "CC" field. Once Wrike receives the e-mail, it automatically creates a new task and assigns it to the e-mail recipient.

In the same way, you can create a task for yourself by simply sending an e-mail to wrike at wrike.com

When creating tasks from e-mail, you also can set the due date and specify the task’s location (folder), as well attach files and specify a description.

Once you get into the habit of sending important action items to Wrike, you’ll instantly experience the improved productivity. First of all, all your tasks will be kept in a single place that’s shared with your team, so nothing will fall through the cracks. Second, Wrike issues reminders about the tasks with deadlines and automatic notifications whenever a task is changed, so you keep your fingers on the pulse of your projects effortlessly.

Wrike’s top-notch e-mail integration provides you with so many opportunities that are not limited to creating tasks. For your convenience, we’ve created a cheat sheet that helps you easily master the all the nuances of e-mail integration.
