Add task
Create a Vincere task with subject, type, due date and assignee.
POST https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/vincere/tasks
Creates a task like the Task board form. task_type is candidate, contact, project, job, job_lead or personal. Pass candidate_id or job_id to link it. The assignee is notified in Vincere. With sync_with_calendar true the task goes to your primary connected calendar, and once synced it cannot be un-synced. Cotlet has no tool to delete a task. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
