Inbound email to task creation
Each task group can have its own inbound email address. Any email sent to that address creates a task in the group, so every request becomes an actionable item without manual entry. The email subject becomes the task title, and the email body becomes the task description.
How auto-creation works
Each task group can be given a unique inbound email address. When email-to-task is turned on for a group, Plutio generates an address you forward to or share as a submission endpoint. Emails sent to that address create a task in the group: subject becomes the task title, body becomes the description, and attachments are saved as files on the task.
Configuring the target project
Inbound email is set up per task group. Open the group, enable email-to-task, and Plutio generates a unique inbound address you can share, forward mail to, or use as a webhook endpoint. A support team, for example, can forward their public inbox to the address on a "Support Requests" board, so each new email becomes a task card ready to be assigned, prioritised, and tracked.
Use cases for email-to-task
Support teams use email-to-task to track every client request as an actionable item. Agencies route client revision requests straight into the relevant project's task board. Internal teams forward approval requests to a shared inbox that generates tasks for review. In each case, the inbox becomes the input and the task board becomes the workspace where the work gets done.
Email-to-task bridges inbox communication and project management, so inbound requests don't sit in an email waiting to be manually transferred to a task board.
