# CopyStormTask

The CopyStormTask table describes each CopyStorm and CopyStorm/Medic task that can be ran against its parent CopyStormJob Salesforce instance. This table also describes the schedule under which each job should be ran by CopyStorm/JobRunner.

CopyStormDirector also defines a view, CopyStormTaskView, which combines information in the CopyStormTask table with the most recently executed task (and its status).

The following table describes each field in the CopyStormTask table:
