Filter for tasks where the current filename is included

[jasmeetchadha]

I write tasks in my daily, with a link to [[project note]].

Inside the [[project note]], I want to run a task query to pull all tasks referencing the note [[project note]]. While I can do that individually by handwriting the note's real title in the query. Is there a way for me to pull the note title inside the query?

Below is my current query.

```tasks
not done
description includes [[$ZM]]

That is currently not possible. The workaround right now would be to add the tasks in the project file instead of the daily and then pull in all tasks from all files into the daily with a query. Kind of „the other way around“.

Does this help?

That wouldnt be ideal. Because my workflow is to collect tasks as thoughts as they happen during the day in the daily. If I add the step of thinking where they below, that friction usually slows down or disincentivizes the adding of the task

It would be great if it was possible to read the filename/title

Ok. I changed this to an 💡Idea and changed the title.

When do you add the [[project note]] link? Don’t you have to think about where the task belongs in order to add it? At that time (maybe end of day?), you could migrate tasks into their appropriate project files.

Tasks is based on another workflow. Basically, whenever you work on a project, you are in that project‘s note and not the daily. All notes you take will be in the context of that project, as will be the tasks.

So really, I have say 50+ of those and growing number of those project notes While I think about the project when adding the task, I don’t have to find the note and add it there. That’s saving one or two steps. I understand how you say you designed it. I am using it differently. But I think it makes it much more scalable (at least for me). Thanks for putting the request in the idea section.
