Overview

Tasks provide a way to execute Pipelines in a reusable manner. You can view Task information (such as run policy, path, and permissions) from an admin perspective. You can also access information about Pipeline runtimes along with their statistics useful for analysis.

The display of information depends on the following types of Tasks:

• Scheduled
• Triggered
• Ultra

Example Task Details Pages 

• Scheduled Task
  

• Triggered Task
  

Viewing Information about a Task

To view Details of a Task:

1. Navigate to the target Project where the Task resides.
   
   
2. Hover over the Task name and click to display the menu, then select Details.
   
   
   The Task Details page appears.
   
   
3. See the Details Reference for a description of information displayed on the Details page.
   
   

4. Alternatively, you can click Activity Log to see when the Task is created or modified.

   Since the Pipelines executed by Tasks are run in an unattended mode, you can receive notifications of Task activity by specifying a comma-separated list of email addresses in the Create Task dialog.

   If you are on the Tasks page under a project, the list displays the type of Task in the Run Policy column. On the project-level page, this column is not available.

   Duplicate Task Executions

   If a Task fails to start with the same reason for multiple times in a row, then subsequent skips are not displayed on the Task details page.

Details Reference

The Details page provides information about your Tasks.
