Tasks - Release Notes

TASKS - ADDED GRANULAR PERMISSIONS FOR ACCESS CONTROL (01/20/2026) 

Procore has added granular permissions (GP) to the Tasks tool to modernize and enhance permission management across the platform. This initiative addresses the significant friction and risk encountered due to the limitations of User Access Levels (UALs), especially in the enterprise segment.

With granular permissions, you can gain precise, flexible control over who can view, create, edit, assign, configure, and close or delete tasks—without providing unnecessary additional permissions. This initiative streamlines task workflows, reduces security risk, and empowers teams to collaborate more effectively, saving time and minimizing administrative overhead. See Tasks - Permissions.
