# How to pin a task
This short tutorial goes through how to pin tasks and why you would do it.
### Why pin a task
Pinning a task to the user interface helps by making important tasks easy to reach. This way users can stay focused and quickly get things done without searching through menus. It removes some of the clicking around the user has to do to update progress on a specific task.
### Pin a task
Open the Tasks side menu, and click the :thumbtack: icon on the task that you would like to pin. This will add a sidebar to your page.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.struct.com/tutorials/guides/how-to-use-tasks/how-to-pin-a-task.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
