We re-implemented the REST service for Tasks that was described here. It has been released to our cloud platform (it is only available on our cloud platform).
It is a much robust implementation that has consistent launch times and can reliably handle large request volumes.
Currently we support both the old (V1) implementation and the new one (V2). The old version will not be available after 31 January 2024. More information here.
You can also contact User Support if you have questions about this service or about switching to the new version.
