Get all Tasks across all Projects

Get all Tasks across all Projects.

  • When getting all tasks responsible-party-ids is only returned if the task is assigned to one or more people. If it is not returned then the task is considered assigned to Anyone.
  • DLM is a time stamp and stands for Date Last Modified. We use this internally for our caching system to make sure we can return data to the API calls quickly. Its not guaranteed to be in the response and can be safely ignored if you see it.
  • Status is the current status of the task and could be one of the following: deleted, completed, reopened, new
  • Private will return a 0, 1 or 2. An open task will be '0', A private task will be '1' and a task which is in a private list will be a '2' as it will inherit the privacy from the parent task list (or parent task)
  • Dependencies on tasks can either be 0 for none, 1 for yes but task can be started, and 2 for task is blocked by a dependency.
  • A flag canEdit is returned with each task.
  • 'updatedAfterDate' parameter will restrict to changes from the last 6 months when used if there are too many tasks to return.
  • Please note: if you delete a task list, the tasks will not be returned in this call.
  • This call uses pagination. 250 tasks per page.
