# My tasks

> [HTML Version](incoming_tasks.html)

This widget is used on [pages](360009924451.md) to display a list of a user's tasks. 

To configure the widget, drag it to the canvas or click **+Widget**. Enter the settings in the opened window.

## Main tab

**(my_tasks_wdgt.PNG)**

- **Show header**. You can hide or show the **Tasks** workspace title in the widget header.

- **Show the Active/All switch**. Here you can show or hide the switch between the **Active** and **All** task lists. If hidden, the user will only be able to see the current tasks assigned to them. The completed tasks will be hidden from the lists, the user will not be able to view their pages. This is done if you need to limit access to information about routes and process administration that are available to the pages of completed tasks.

- **Show buttons in header**. You can hide or show the **+Process** and **+Task** buttons in the widget header. 

You can also add custom buttons to display in the widget header. Click **+Button** in the upper right corner of the canvas and configure a button. Read more in the [Quick action buttons](common_widget_settings.md) article.

You can set system option values for the widget’s main settings. Click the **(bind_table-icon.png)** icon next to the field's name and then the **<Not defined>** link. Select an available system field: **Hide**, **Read only**, **Load the contents asynchronously**.

## Events and System tabs

The **Events** and **System** tabs are for system settings that are the same for all the widgets. They allow you to configure a widget’s visibility and access to its data, define what happens, when the user moves or hovers the pointer over the widget, etc. Find out more in [System widget settings](common_widget_settings.md). 

To complete the settings, click **Save**. To make the changes available to users, click **Save** and **Publish** in the top toolbar.

## Use case

In the case below, the **My tasks** widget is configured on the same page as the activity stream.

Additionally, you can use this widget to set up [external portal](service-portal.md) pages. In such case the **Active/All** switch and the buttons for adding tasks and processes remain hidden all the time.
