Missions are short-duration objectives created by Ingress Agents. Upon completion, Agents are rewarded with a custom medal that is displayed on their Agent Profile. Successfully completing certain number of Missions unlocks the SpecOps Medal.

 

All Agents at Level 7 or above can create Missions by using the Mission Authoring Tool. Within this tool, Agents can choose to create Missions by using Portals or Field Trip cards as Waypoints. Upon submission, Missions are reviewed by NIAOPS before publishing them live. Remember, this is a privilege for trusted agents who abide by the Missions Criteria, and excessive rejections or spammy submissions may result in your Mission authoring permissions being suspended.
