The tasks API allows you to

list tasks
skip tasks
complete tasks

A typical flow includes:

Getting a list of tasks via GET /tasks/
Doing something about them outside Amplemarket
Skipping or completing the task via API

Only scheduled and manual tasks can be completed via API (status = scheduled and automatic = false)

Errors

Attempting to Complete an Ineligible Task

If you attempt to complete an already completed task, the API will handle it gracefully and return an HTTP 200

If you try to complete a task that is not eligible (e.g., automatic tasks or tasks not in scheduled status), you will receive an error response:

{
  "_errors": [
    {
      "status": "422",
      "code": "unsupported_value",
      "title": "Unsupported Value",
      "detail": "Task is in a state prevents it from being executed manually"
    }
  ]
}
