With N99panel you can have certain tasks treated as automated/admin tasks whereby your normal scripts in a VHost/Website can submit and track tasks.

Firstly you need to enable Admin Tasks for a certain user. This you can do from N99panel Dashboard → List Users . Only a single user can have the Admin Tasks enabled for itself. Once you have enabled the Admin Tasks, you need to do the following w.r.t. task submission and management.

Under the user (which has been enabled for admin tasks), create the folder /home/user/admin_tasks , if it is not already created . Substitute user for the admin task user

Under the folder /home/user/admin_tasks , following sub-folders are involved

new_tasks - If it is not present, you will need to create it at your end. Here you would place the requisite JSON file with a .json extension which contains the task details . The JSON file should begin with a number preferably a timestamp . Example of a valid JSON filename is 1744610599.json . Each JSON file contains a single task. The typical fomat of a JSON file is

{
    "task":"__TASK_NAME__",
    "params":{
        "__PARAM1__":"__VALUE1__" ,
        "__PARAM2__":"__VALUE2__" ,
    }
}

The system checks for new tasks every minute, and the moves those tasks to the current_tasks folder before executing the task.

current_tasks - This is a system created folder to manage the task state. When a task is to be executed, the system places it in this folder. When the execution is done, the task is then moved to either handled_tasks or discarded_tasks depending upon whether its execution was successful or not

handled_tasks - Tasks which are successful, are placed under this folder

discarded_tasks - Tasks which are un-successful, are placed under this folder. It also contains a log file w.r.t. task where its name begins using the same name of the original task file but with also date/time references.

To summarise everthing

As a developer, you would need be doing the following
- Enable Admin tasks
- Ensure folder /home/user/admin_tasks is present
- If you are placing tasks via a VHost's PHP script etc., you would need to expose the the above folder to the VHost from within N99panel options like Update Other Dirs under VHost details or 'Expose Dirs' from under Users
- Track the tasks using your own scripts
