Before you can create a task checklist, you must have access to your Mox workspace and have a Project Manager role within the project or be a Workspace Owner or Account Owner

Project Managers can add, edit, delete, and reorder task checklist items in the task details panel.

• Project members can use them as their helper to check-off items. They appear in the task detail panel, on the task performer page, and on the right panel when reviewing assets in the Review tool.

Note: Checklist items can be created and edited only in the task details panel.

Step 3: Click on + Add Task Checklist Item from the task details panel.

Step 4: Type in a task checklist item, and click on the checkmark to save it. The task checklist item is added.
