About this GuideIntroduction to the Task Engine APIs

This guide describes how you can manipulate tasks running in IBM webMethods BPM Task Engine with the web service API and with the built-in Java services installed on Integration Server in the WmTaskClient package.

You can use the web service API to build web-service or .NET client applications that create, delete, locate, and modify tasks on Task Engine.

You can use the built-in services as templates to create services in IBM webMethods Designer that run on Integration Server and that can create, modify, locate, queue, and delete tasks on the Task Engine to which Integration Server is connected.
