# Common tasks: lightweight actions for onboarding and manual interactions
> Flexible tasks for basic actions, onboarding steps, and manual interactions in your quests.
## What are Common tasks?
Common tasks are lightweight, versatile tasks that guide users through actions without requiring external validation, connected accounts, or blockchain verification. Use them for instructional steps, manual confirmations, form submissions, code distribution, and simple user interactions.
**Use Common tasks to:**
* Add manual or instructional steps to your quest
* Confirm actions without collecting evidence
* Collect form-based input or votes
* Distribute invite or gift codes
* Track daily engagement or task streaks
* Integrate custom rewards and routing logic
For detailed information about general task settings, including task header, description, rewards, dependencies, and more, refer to [Task Settings](/tasks/task-settings).

## Create a task
1. From your campaign dashboard, go to the **Quests** tab and click on the quest where you want to add a Common task.
2. On the quest settings page, click **+ Create new task**.
3. In the Category section, click **General**.
4. In the Groups section, click **Common** and browse the available Common tasks.
5. Select the task that matches your campaign goal and click **Continue**.
### Configure task settings
Each Common task has specific configuration options.
Common settings include:
**Completion points**: Set the number of points awarded when the user completes the task.
**Points multiplier (%)**: Add a percentage-based bonus to the total reward.
**Recurrence** (for applicable tasks): Control how often users can complete the task (once, daily, weekly, multiple).
Click **Advance settings** to configure additional options like dependencies, completion pop-ups, and metadata.
Click **Create task** to save your Common task.
To see how your task will appear to users, click **Preview**. This will open a new tab showcasing three different views: desktop, tablet, and mobile. You can toggle between these views to ensure your task looks and functions seamlessly across all devices.
**Pro tip**: Common tasks work best for onboarding flows, instructional content, or campaign mechanics that don't require external verification. Combine them with verified tasks (X, Web3, etc.) to create comprehensive quest journeys.
