Sharing Projects

Quick reference

• 00:05 Hello everyone and welcome back to this Todoist course here on GoSkills,
• 00:09 we're going to be diving into the abilities of sharing inside of projects.
• 00:13 Now when you want to share a project inside of Todoist,
• 00:16 it can be a great way to collaborate, collaborating with a goal in mind is
• 00:21 one of the best ways that teams can operate and coordinate their activities.
• 00:25 As you can imagine, something like a conference might be a great starting
• 00:29 point, let say you and your colleagues have to work on a conference plan it,
• 00:33 organize it and get it together, it can be pretty stressful.
• 00:37 So you can see here that I've created a conference project here, and
• 00:40 you're probably wondering, how do I get started sharing.
• 00:43 So the only way to share inside of Todoist is by creating a project and
• 00:49 inviting people over to it.
• 00:50 So for example, I'm going to click these option button here, and
• 00:54 you should see an option inside of here called Share project.
• 00:58 Once I click Share project, you can do a whole host of different things.
• 01:02 If I already had someone on side of my Todoist account that I already
• 01:06 connected with another project, you can just search name and they should appear.
• 01:10 But in this case I don't, so I'm going to actually add a new collaborator.
• 01:15 So let's add bob@bob.com and press Invite.
• 01:20 As you can see here, invite has been sent over to bob@bob.com and
• 01:25 his name has been created.
• 01:27 Now you can see here that's it pending, and
• 01:29 you can delete if you wish, remove that collaborator.
• 01:32 You can add as many as you like, although there are options
• 01:36 inside of Todoist that limit you inside of this account.
• 01:40 If I want to, I can invite from projects so you can see that there are no other
• 01:44 projects shared here, but you can do that if you have that accessible.
• 01:49 And if I wanted to, I can see who exactly is being shared
• 01:54 inside of this project without necessarily having to go in the options.
• 01:57 Now you probably see that there's this person that appear and not this just
• 02:01 plain color, that means that it's a shared project, which is a great indication.
• 02:06 Now from here you can see that Bob has obviously been invited and from here,
• 02:10 I can start to assign items to him.
• 02:13 So if I click Edit item, you can see that a plus button appears,
• 02:17 which is the assigning option.
• 02:19 Now I'm going to assign this task to Bob, and
• 02:21 he's going to begin planning the event conference.
• 02:24 Now of course, you can add tons of different sub tasks,
• 02:26 tons of different extra items, section headings and stuff that we'll talk about
• 02:31 in later advanced sections, but it's a great way to use it in front of teams, for
• 02:36 freelancers that want to bring in different clients.
• 02:38 Or even if they're just coordinating a project with someone that they're
• 02:43 working with, another team member, or using it casually.
• 02:47 I know a lot of people use this as a way to add all of their chores for the house.
• 02:51 And allow students who have the students housing that work together to clean house
• 02:55 using Todoist, so it's a great way to collaborate and
• 02:58 it's a great way to coordinate.
• 03:00 Hopefully that was a nice overview, we'll be diving over in the next section into
• 03:05 section four, which talks about labels and filters, I'm really excited for that one.
• 03:10 Make sure to check out all of the exercises and
• 03:12 resources provided inside of this section.
• 03:15 Thank you very much guys, and I'll see you guys in the next section, cheers!
