Projects

Projects are one of the core entities in the awork API. They represent a collection of tasks and other resources that are related to a specific project. Projects can be used to organize work, track progress, and collaborate with others in awork.

How to work with projects

There are two major ways for creating a project in awork: using a project template or from scratch. See the Project Template endpoint for more information on how to manage project templates.

Creating a project from scratch

Creating a project from scratch is easy. The only required field for creating a project is the name.
