# About Workflow Tasks

The **Workflow Tasks** page is a collection of all your pending tasks. Whenever someone assigns you to work on a [workflow stage](/docs/headless-cms/about-workflow-stages) on an [entry](/docs/headless-cms/about-entries), or if someone sends you an entry for [publishing](/docs/headless-cms/publish-an-entry) or unpublishing approval, it is added to your **Tasks** page. Each [stack](/docs/headless-cms/about-stack) has a separate Tasks section.

This enables you to get an overview of the approval requests specific to the content of your stack.

**Key points to remember**:

*   Stack [owners](/docs/headless-cms/types-of-roles#owner) and [administrators](/docs/headless-cms/types-of-roles#admin) have access to view all the tasks assigned to [different users](/docs/headless-cms/about-stack-roles).
*   [Content managers](/docs/headless-cms/types-of-roles#content-manager) and other custom roles with limited privileges cannot view the entire task list. They can only view their tasks list.

**Note:** The owner of the stack or the administrator can view all the tasks assigned to all users of the stack. This gives them a central location to view and keep track of all the assigned tasks.

To navigate to your **Tasks** section, log in to your [Contentstack account](https://www.contentstack.com/login/), and follow the steps given below:

1.  Go to the relevant stack.
2.  Click the “Tasks” icon beside the “Help” icon (question mark **?**) located on the top right side corner, as shown below:
