String Optional. Specifies whether the operation returns the TaskData object as well as the TaskInfo object for each task matching the search criteria. Set to:

TaskSearchQuery The TaskSearchQuery object, which specifies the search criteria. See TaskSearchQuery for a description of the fields in this object.

If TaskSearchQuery is null, all tasks for user are returned.

String Optional. The user ID of the My webMethods Server user on whose behalf this operation executes.

If user is not specified, the administrative user ID under which your client program logged on is used.

String List of tasks fields that are to be returned by this service. For information about specifying fields, see the fields and operator elements in TaskSearchQueryTerm. For example, suppose you want to return the following fields as result of the query:

You would then pass in following field specifications:

#{currentTask.taskInfo.taskID}

#{currentTask.taskData.order.orderID}

This API returns the values for these fields only.

Document List Result set containing the tasks that match the search criteria in TaskSearchQuery. Each document in the result set has the following structure:

That is, the service returns a collection of tasks that match the query. For each task, it returns a collection of specified fields.

The purpose of this API is to ease performance issues with searchTasks(). It is quite common that only few taskInfo fields along with some business data fields are returned. When using searchTasks() it returns the entire TaskInfo plus TaskData documents; the TaskData could be very large. This could cause the SOAP response size to become an issue, severely limiting performance of this service. By using searchTaskFields() instead, the user can choose to return only a few fields which can help improve performance.
