What's a task?

A task is something you want to accomplish on your HubSpot. It can also be work essentially related to the use of HubSpot, which you can clearly describe through the customer portal.

For example, the task might be "we need to enable GDPR settings in HubSpot" or "we want to know how the SEO tool works."
