post/tasksWrite operation

Create a task

Use this operation to create a task. The server validates the complete payload and derives workspace ownership from the authenticated credential. Required scopes, product permissions, sharing rules, workspace locks, and regional cell ownership are enforced for every request. Use a stable Idempotency-Key when retrying so a transport timeout cannot create duplicate work.
