DocsTasks and Microsoft To Do
Where your CRM tasks live, and what the Microsoft To Do connection does today.
Your tasks live in the CRM, and the CRM is where you work them.
Every task you create in the CRM lives in the CRM: on My Work, on the task board, and on the record it is attached to. That is the list the CRM schedules reminders from, counts in your queue, reports on, and lets the assistant work with.
It is part of the Microsoft 365 permission set, not a second task list.
When you connect Microsoft 365, the permission set the CRM asks for includes access to Microsoft To Do. It is requested once, alongside mail, calendar and contacts, so the connection does not have to be redone later.
The sync that does run for tasks is to your calendar. A CRM task with a due date can be pushed to your connected calendar as an event, so a deadline you are supposed to act on shows up beside your meetings rather than only in a list you have to remember to open. It has its own per-task control and its own article.
Your Microsoft 365 mail, calendar and contacts all sync in their own right. Those are covered in the Microsoft 365 article.
