After you create a task in Software AG Designer, it remains available within the design-time environment of Designer but is not present in the run-time environment. To make the task available for a Task Engine instance, running on My webMethods Server or Integration Server, you must publish the task application project containing the task to the required run-time environment. When a task application is initially published, all tasks in the task application project are published to the run-time environment.

A project containing one or more tasks is published to the target runtime like any other portlet project. For more information about publishing portlet projects in general, see webMethods CAF and OpenUI Development Help.
