Is it possible (through the API or a setting) to create tasks under the same parent with the same name? My use case: I am swapping the position of tasks, and as an intermediate step, the tasks will briefly share a parent. (The position changes come through separately via webhooks so I can't change them at the same time). At the moment I am renaming the tasks and renaming them back.

Hi Andrew We have a customer who uses ftrack to manage their projects but wishes to use an external system to help with automatically scheduling tasks. Having these extra details will help us have a more accurate timeline to assist with this type of scheduling. Thanks

Thanks, I understand now how to get the link data from the API. I am also interested in the Type and Lag values that are available to us on the site - do we have access to these from the API? They don't seem to be part of the TypedContextLink. I have checked the metadata dictionary that is attached to it but it's empty. Thanks

In the Gantt tool, we can create task links and assign them some attributes (start-to-finish, lag). I wish to manage these links myself through the API - is it currently possible? Using the network tab in the browser, I can see these changes being recorded as an entity of type 'dependency', but it isn't listed in the API schema reference and my attempts to target it through the python API client fail. Any ideas of what I can do here?
