# Creates a task on a project's board.

> The task is numbered from the project's own sequence, so its display number matches what
the app would have given it - `PRO-462-7`. Creating a task moves a project that had
not started into progress, exactly as it does in the app, and fires the same automation
triggers.
            
`PriorityId` is the same scale a ticket uses: None=0, Urgent=1, High=2, Normal=3,
Low=4. Omit it for Normal.
