  title: Beam Task Queues API
  description: 'Specification of the documented Beam (beam.cloud) HTTP surfaces: synchronous invocation of deployed web endpoints, asynchronous task submission to deployed task queues, and the control-plane Tasks API for querying status and cancelling tasks. Beam deployments are created from Python with the Beam SDK/CLI; this spec covers the resulting HTTP invocation and management patterns only.'

      summary: Submit an asynchronous task to a deployed task queue
      description: Enqueue an asynchronous task on a deployed TaskQueue, addressed by its name on the shared invocation host (a deployment is equivalently reachable at its app subdomain https://{name}-{id}.app.beam.cloud). The call returns immediately with a task_id; the result is retrieved later from the Tasks management API or delivered to a configured callback_url webhook. Use task queues for long-running work beyond the synchronous endpoint window.
