Tasks tool

Use the Tasks tool to select tasks, manage content within a task, and add comments and approve or reject tasks

The Tasks tool works within the context of a workspace. A workspace is an access-controlled work area where you can make and preview changes to managed assets, without affecting what is currently running on the site. Working in the context of a workspace is similar to having the own private copy of the managed assets. You can make changes and preview changes without affecting managed assets outside the workspace. Once you are satisfied with the changes you have made in a workspace, you can commit the changes to the production database, and begin to see the effects on the site.
