Create a task

Creates a new task record. The $title and $status fields and the $assignedTo relationship are required.

If $createdBy is omitted it defaults to the authenticated user, or to a workspace admin for workspace-scoped auth. The $note relationship is read-only — manage notes via their own relationships.

Supports idempotency via the Idempotency-Key header.
