Inspecting tasks
You can inspect task documentation, outcomes of task jobs, a list of installed tasks, and a list of tasks you have permission to run.
To view installed tasks, tasks you have permission to run, and task documentation,
log into your primary server or client tools workstation and run one of the
following commands:
Command | Definition |
---|---|
puppet task show <TASK> |
Check the documentation for a specific task. Returns the command format to run the task and any parameters you can use with it. |
puppet task show |

puppet task show
--all |

To get information about the outcome of specific jobs, including scheduled jobs, you
can use the:
- Scheduled jobs endpoints (Many scheduled job functions are also available in the console.)
- Tasks endpoints
