What is a Task Collection
Task Collection gives you a database-style view of your tasks - go beyond a simple list and filter, group, sort, and create custom views to manage your work exactly the way you need.
How to Access Task Collection
Click the task icon in the top-right corner of your workspace to open the Task panel. At the top of the panel, switch from Task List to Task Collection.
Global vs Project Task Collection
Task Collection has two scopes depending on what you need:
Global Task Collection — shows all tasks across every workspace and project in xTiles. Useful for a complete picture of everything on your plate.
Project Task Collection — shows tasks from one specific project only. Still accessible as a system page inside any project. Useful for focused project-level management or when working with a team on a single project.
Task Collection appears automatically in a project as soon as the first task is created — no setup needed. If you've hidden it or want to re-enable it manually:
Go to your project.
Click the small down arrow at the top of the project.
In the System Tabs window that appears, toggle Tasks on.
Views
Task Collection comes with several built-in views:
All Tasks — every task in scope
To-Do — active tasks that still need completing
Completed — tasks already marked done
Calendar — tasks displayed by due date on a calendar
Board by Assignee — Kanban-style board organized by assignee, useful for tracking team workload
You can also create your own custom views using existing properties — click + New View at the top of Task Collection to get started.
Filters
You can customize which tasks are displayed in your Task Collection by using the Filter option in the top-right corner of the collection settings.
You can apply multiple filters at the same time to control exactly which tasks appear. Tasks can be filtered by:
Tasks can be filtered by:
Name
Status (To Do, Completed)
Due Date
Assignee
Priority (Low, Medium, High)
Created Time
Created By
Location (by page)
This allows you to quickly focus on the tasks that matter most.
