# Managing tasks on issues
<a name="issues-tasks"></a>

*Tasks* can be added to issues to further break down, organize, and track the work of that issue. You can create tasks yourself, or you can use Amazon Q to recommend tasks based on its analysis of the issue and its complexity. 

Amazon Q Developer is a generative AI-powered conversational assistant that can help you to understand, build, extend, and operate AWS applications. To accelerate your building on AWS, the model that powers Amazon Q is augmented with high-quality AWS content to produce more complete, actionable, and referenced answers. For more information, see [What is Amazon Q Developer?](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazonq/latest/aws-builder-use-ug/what-is.html) in the *Amazon Q Developer User Guide*. 

**To manage tasks on an issue**

1. Choose the issue for which you want to manage tasks. For help on finding your issue, see [Finding and viewing issues](issues-view.md).

1. In **Tasks**, you can view and manage tasks for the issue.

   1. To add a task, input the task name in the text field and press enter.

   1. If there are no tasks for the issue, you can choose to have Amazon Q analyze the issue and create tasks based on the issue title, description, and its analysis of the complexity of the issue and the repository code, choose **Recommend tasks**. You will need to specify the source repository that contains the code for the issue. Choose **Start recomending tasks** to begin the task recommendation analysis. That dialog will close. Once the recommendation is complete, choose **View recommended tasks** to review the tasks and take any needed action, such as deleting or adding tasks to the list or reordering the recommended tasks, before choosing **Create tasks**. 

      After tasks are created for you, you can assign them to users and work with them the same way you work with manually created tasks.

   1. To mark a task as completed, choose the checkbox of the task.

   1. To view or update the details of a task, choose it from the list.

   1. To reorder the tasks, choose and drag the task from the left side of the checkbox.

   1. To remove a task, choose the ellipses menu of the task and choose **Remove**.
