# Create Task

Creates a Human Task

The Create Task activity is used when a particular task requires human intervention to become complete. The activity takes a task data as input which can be configured using the [`Configure Task Data Window`](/getting-started/rpa-studio/editor-windows/configure-task-data-window.md). The task data can come from different sources like the `ExtractionResult` from the [`Run Extractor`](/rpa-studio/document-ai/tasks/run-extractor.md) activity. In that case the activity would create a [`Validation Task`](/getting-started/robot-runner/human-tasks/introduction.md). Optionally the activity can wait until the task is updated by an assigned user.
