As a workaround until you add the task form or an active link guide to the
list of entry points, there is an OOTB link. It's on Foundation > Overview
Console, there is a search for tickets button on the right side. It opens a
dialog with a list of ticket types, choose Task to open the task form in
search mode.

There are 4 things needed to display a form in the application list.
1. The end user needs to be in a group/role that has Visible permission to
the form. (They are all hidden by default)
2. Add an Entry Point label to the view.
3. Check the box in the form definition under Entry Points
4. Flush the mid-tier cache and delete temporary internet files
