# How do I add people and/or distribution groups to the distribution list of a task?

When you create a new task, you have the option to add individuals and/or distribution groups to the task's distribution list. This way you can make a task visible to several people (same principle as the CC function for an email).

How to create a distribution group for tasks can be found here => [How to create a distribution group for tasks](https://help.smino.com/en/article/how-do-i-create-a-distribution-group-for-tasks-1ql03bq/).

How to create a task can be found here => [How to create a task](https://help.smino.com/en/article/how-do-i-create-a-task-1vpght/).

Click on **+ New task** (1.), navigate to the "Distribution list" input field and select the saved group by typing the group's name into the field (yellow highlighted area) or **selecting it directly** (2.). This saves you from having to enter each contact individually.

You also have the possibility to add individual persons to the distribution list of the task by writing the name of the person in the "Distribution list" input field.
