InfluxDB Tasks API is one of 40 APIs that [InfluxDB](https://apis.io/providers/influxdb/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification and an AsyncAPI event-driven specification. Tagged areas include Task. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, an AsyncAPI specification, authentication docs, and a getting-started guide.

Process and analyze your data with [tasks](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/reference/glossary/#task) in the InfluxDB task engine. Use the `/api/v2/tasks` endpoints to schedule and manage tasks, retry task runs, and retrieve run logs. To configure a task, provide the script and the schedule to run the task. For examples, see how to create a task with the [`POST /api/v2/tasks` endpoint](#operation/PostTasks). <span id="tasks-schemaref-task" /> ### Properties A `task` object contains information about an InfluxDB task resource. The following table defines the properties that appear in this object: <SchemaDefinition schemaRef="#/components/schemas/Task" /> ### Related guides - [Get started with tasks](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/process-data/get-started/) - [Common data processing tasks](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/process-data/common-tasks/) - [Create a script](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/api-guide/api-invokable-scripts/#create-an-invokable-script)
