  - name: Task
    description: >-
      A task is an item of work intended for completion by an assignee. It can
      embody activities like pickups, deliveries, planning, inspections, sales
      visits, or other work-related actions within your organization. Tasks
      encompass essential attributes, including IDs, flow, time, status
      indicators, assignee information, order index, and other pertinent data.
      The content of a task is configurable based on your specified flow
      settings. For instance, tasks can serve as visits during the route
      optimization process, functioning as pivotal elements. The task can also
      represent a visit in route optimization, please follow [this
      link](#tag/Routing) to read more detail.

  - name: Location History
    description: >-
      Location history is data that stores the user's location points that are
      sent periodically from the MileApp mobile application if the user
      activates the tracking feature. However, this endpoint can also be useful
      for integration into the user's IoT devices such as GPS or other mobile
      trackers. All location data sent can be visualized in MileApp in real time
      and makes it easier for users to monitor field activities more accurately.

  - name: Task Schedule
    description: >-
      Task Schedule is a mechanism to generate tasks according to the schedule
      that is set by you. The task schedule attributes consist of IDs,
      repetition period data (daily, weekly, etc.), flow structure, task
      content, and time of the schedule's start & end. This schedule could help
      you to set a task that will be repeated at a certain period.

      link](#tag/task_schedule_model)**
  - name: Activity
    description: >-
      An Activity is a multi-step task group created from a Workflow template.
      When you create an Activity, MileApp automatically creates one parent task
      (with `taskType = activityMaster`) plus one child task (with `taskType =
      activityChild`) per Workflow step, and copies field values forward between
      steps according to the Workflow's field mappings. Activities are stored
      alongside regular tasks — the parent's `_id` is also the Activity ID, and
      its `subId` array lists every child task in Workflow-step order.


      After creation, retrieve, update, or delete an Activity through the
      standard Task endpoints using the Activity master task's ID.
