## Details

The `createNewTask` method works the same way as the method with the same name in the
[Tasklist service](../../process-services/services/tasklist.service.md)
but uses the cloud variants of the classes for the parameter and return value. See the
[Tasklist service](../../process-services/services/tasklist.service.md) page for usage examples.
