Who can execute the method: any user with access to Scrum

This method creates or updates a Scrum task. You will be able to:

  • create a task in Scrum
  • move a task from another project
  • transfer it between the backlog and sprints
  • change story points
  • link an epic

A task must be created using the tasks.task.add method or updated using the tasks.task.update method. Linking the task to Scrum is specified in the group identifier parameter GROUP_ID.
