Task Management#

The Task Management feature within ConverSight’s AI Workbench provides users with a user-friendly interface, offering a centralized hub to efficiently monitor and manage all created and registered tasks. This intuitive platform grants easy access to a comprehensive list of registered tasks organized neatly into different libraries, simplifying task management for increased productivity. Users gain a comprehensive overview of tasks they have created or have access to, presented in a well-organized tabular format. This streamlined approach allows for seamless task management on a single platform, eliminating the need for maintaining multiple notebooks. Additionally, Task Management facilitates effortless updating of task details and offers the convenience of version control. Through task promotion, users can adjust the visibility level of tasks, with options including platform organization and user levels, ensuring appropriate access and availability.

The Task Management page provides a detailed overview of various fields related to each task, making it easier to manage them efficiently. These fields are as follows:

Argument	Description
Name	The task name gives a quick insight into what the task is about and how it fits into the overall project. It’s a short but descriptive title that makes it easy to recognize the task.
Description	A description provides clarity and guides others to a better understanding of the task. It includes detailed information about what the task entails, its objectives and any other relevant details that could help others understand it better.
Library	A library is an aggregation of tasks based on common grouping or similar functionalities.
Latest Version	The initial version of a task is marked as 0.1 upon creation, while subsequent updates result in an incremented version number such as 0.2, 0.3 and so on, each time the task is saved. This helps to keep track of different versions of the task and facilitates version control.
Level	There are three levels to which a task can be promoted: User Level Organization Level and Platform Level.
Created Time	The created time feature shows the time at which the task was created.
Updated Time	The updated time indicates the time of the latest task update. It helps to track the latest changes made to the task.
Action	The Action column contains manage versions and delete options. Users can manage different versions of the task and delete any unnecessary ones.

Delete

When a user selects a particular task and opts to delete it, all versions associated with that task will be removed. To delete a task, click on the icon located in the Action column.

Manage Versions#

To manage task versions, users can access the icon within the Action Menu of the desired task and select Manage Versions. This section displays the task’s version, promotion level, creation and modification times and actions for each task.

Run a Task#

Users can choose to manually trigger the execution of any version of their created task via the User Interface by selecting the icon within the Action column linked to the desired task version. This feature simplifies task execution by eliminating the requirement to manually code and execute tasks through a notebook each time.

Upon clicking the icon, users need to provide the necessary input arguments for the task if default values were not assigned during task creation. Afterward, they should click Submit to start the execution process.

../../../../_images/Task_Run_Submit.png — Run a Task without Default Values#

By default, tasks with default arguments will execute using those preset values. However, users have the option to modify these default values if they wish to run the task with custom parameters.

Show Code#

The Show Code feature reveals the code associated with the task, depending on the access permissions set during task creation. Users can assign one of three access levels to the task:

View: Allows users to only view the code.

Edit: Enables users to view and modify the code as needed.

No Access: Prevents users from viewing or editing the code.
