task panel in Smart Console

hi folks,

I have question related to task panel in Gui client. I have a script which is running multiple OS commands via MGMT API call: run-script on every target connected to this MGMT.

Everything is just fine with running OS commands and getting result anyway every task is included in task panel. Is there a way you can disable this behavior so these tasks wont be displayed? - some API hidden settings etc. (you can imagine if I will run for example 30 cmds on 15 targets, task panel will be flashing like a mad max 😛 )

API call run-script does not have any parameter where I can say task is hidden or so..

thx!

What about closing the Dashboard, what happens if you open it after the tasks have run ?

Don believe that's possible currently.

hope it will be possible one day because it can be really annoying specially for admins who do not know you are running script for some check tasks etc via API. thank you anyway for reply @PhoneBoy
