Introduction

Generally tasks are categorized as a parent task or a child task. A child tasks can be moved between the parent tasks. The following article further explains how to move a child task from one parent to another parent task using our REST API, which can be used with any language, like .NET, Java, PHP, Ruby, Rails, Python, jQuery and many more.
