How do I create or edit a task?

You need to be part of a hosting team, and have any role besides “Tasks” (learn more about hosting teams on Airbnb) in order to create or edit a task. Task tools allow hosting teams to create specific jobs for other team members or service providers to complete, such as cleaning before or after a guest's stay, maintenance jobs, or greeting arriving guests onsite. An individual task can be assigned to an individual person and a specific listing.

To create a new task with a checklist of steps, you’ll want to create a template first. Find out how to create a template.

To create a task:

1. Log in to your account on a desktop computer or browser (not using the Airbnb app) and go to Tasks
2. Go to Task overview > All tasks
