The com.adobe.idp.taskmanager.dsc.client.endpoint package provides service client classes that allow you to create Java client applications that interact with a Task Manager endpoint.

Task-enabled services that are exposed by an end-user application, must be configured with a Task Manager endpoint by an administrator. Beginning with LiveCycle 9.0, task-enabled services can also be configured as part of a process design by using the Workspace Startpoint.

An endpoint associates a service (and a specific operation within a service) to an available connector and specifies any necessary configuration needed by that connector to invoke the associated operation or service.

Task Manager endpoints are set up for the following purposes:

• To indicate which service operations should be available from an end user user interface. The service container will have many different services with many operations, and not all of them should be exposed in an end-user application.
• To provide a mechanism to categorize the operations available to the client application.
• To provide a mapping mechanism that can configure inputs and outputs for the operation.
