# Replace Task Assignees

POST https://api.projectmanager.com/api/data/tasks/{taskId}/assignees
Content-Type: application/json

Replace all TaskAssignees on a Task with new TaskAssignees.
            
A TaskAssignee is an assignment of a Resource to a Task.  You can assign multiple Resources
to a Task and designate how much of their time will be allocated to this Task.

In the request body, id is the id of the Resource you would like to assign to the Task, and 
assignedEffort is the amount of time that Resource is expected to spend on the task. assignedEffort 
should be entered in minutes.

## Types

### AssigneeUpsertDto

An AssigneeUpsert is a create-or-update process that will either create a new assignment of effort to a TaskAssignee or update an existing effort amount for an existing TaskAssignee.

- `id` (string, required) — The unique identifier of the TaskAssignee to which work is being assigned.
- `assignedEffort` (integer, optional, nullable) — The new amount of effort to assign for this Resource. This value is measured in minutes. If AssignedEffort is null, we try either use the existing AssignedEffort (if there is one), or the Default Planned Effort.

### AstroError

Information about an error that occurred within the ProjectManager API.

- `technicalError` (string, optional, nullable) — A technical description of the error that occurred. Not suitable for display to end users.
- `additionalErrors` (list of string, optional, nullable) — If additional errors beyond the main error in `Message` occurred, they will be listed here as individual messages.
- `validationErrors` (map from string to list of string, optional, nullable) — This contains a dictionary of validation errors. The key is the name of the field
- `message` (string, optional, nullable) — A description of the error that occurred. If your application has a user interface, show this message to explain what went wrong.

### ChangeSetStatusDto

Returns the id of a specific ChangeSet

- `changeSetId` (string, optional) — The unique identifier of this Changeset
- `id` (string, optional) — The unique identifier of the entity affected by this Changeset. For example, if this Changeset was created for a Task, this value will be the unique identifier for the Task.
