# Tasks overview

### Overview

The Tasks panel on your Dashboard gives you a quick snapshot of what needs your attention today. Tasks shown here are **private to you** and are not visible to other users.

From the Dashboard, you can:

* View **Today’s tasks** and overdue tasks**.**
* Mark tasks as completed.
* Open the full **Tasks** page to manage all tasks.

This helps you keep track of important work without anything slipping through the cracks.

The **Today’s tasks** panel is located on the top-right side of your Dashboard.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.caspen.com/using-caspen/dashboard/tasks-overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
