Create a follow-up task for the current lead, visible in the lead detail view.

Create Task Node

Creates a task entry attached to the lead record. Tasks appear in the lead's detail page under the activity/notes section and serve as reminders for your team.

When to use it

Create a "Call back in 1 day" task every time a new hot lead arrives.
Generate a task for account managers when a lead replies to an email.

Tips & gotchas

Tasks are internal to FlowMaticX. To create tasks in GHL, use the GoHighLevel node with action: create_task.
Use specific titles — {{lead.firstName}} follow up is more useful than just Follow up.
