# Set-RDMTask

### Synopsis

Save or update a task.

### Syntax

#### \_\_AllParameterSets

```
Set-RDMTask [-Task] <PSTask> [-Comment <string>] [-Description <string>] [-DueDate <datetime>]
 [-Force] [-Name <string>] [-Priority <int>] [-Status <string>] [-UnassignUser] [-User <Object>]
 [-ForcePromptAnswer <DialogResult[]>] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
```

### Description

Save or update a task of the current workspace. This feature is only available for the following workspaces: Devolutions Server, Azure SQL, SQL Server, and SQLite. If the workspace does not support users, the parameter User will be simply ignored. If a virtual folder is involved, the user must have the add and edit rights to save the tasks. To modify fields, this cmdlet parameters can be used or the PSTask can be modified directly. The confirmation impact (ConfirmImpact) is low.

### Examples

#### Example 1

```powershell
PS C:\> Get-RDMTask -Name ATask | Set-RDMTask -Comment "Task completed" -Status Closed
```

Add the comment "Task completed" to task ATask and close it. If the name is not unique, all tasks named ATask will have the modifications.

#### Example 2

```powershell
PS C:\> New-RDMTask -Name ATask -Entry AnEntry | Set-RDMTask -Force
```

Save a newly created task named ATask and associated with AnEntry without any confirmation prompt.

#### Example 3

```powershell
PS C:\> $user = Get-RDMUser -Name AUser; Get-RDMTask -Status Assigned -User $user | Set-RDMTask -UnassignUser
```

Unassign all the tasks assigned the user AUser.

#### Example 4

```powershell
PS C:\> $task = Get-RDMTask -Name ATask; $task.Task.CustomField1 = "Whatever"; Set-RDMTask $task
```

Store the uniquely named task ATask in $task. Add a value to the CustomField1 and save the modification using the only positional parameter.

#### Example 5

```powershell
PS C:\> Get-RDMTask -Name ATask | Set-RDMTask $task -WhatIf -Verbose -Description 'NewDesc' -DueDate 2023/1/1 -Priority 3
```

Using the WhatIf and Verbose parameters, it will allow to determine if the task is created or updated and where exactly (workspace name > entry name > task name). No modification will happen.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.devolutions.net/powershell/powershell-commands/set-rdmtask.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
