# Running Tasks

Tasks are typically scheduled to run based on periodic intervals, or triggered using an Event step (see About Event Tools) or some other mechanism via the Task API (see About the King Task Centre Task API).

Tasks can also be triggered manually through the client using the Queue Now feature — right-click the relevant task and select Queue Now. This is useful for testing tasks during the design process, and for running manual tasks.

## Task Practises to Avoid

The following recommendations are made about task practises to avoid:

|  | Do not create tasks that contain multiple Event steps (see Tools and Steps) that initiate different parts of the task flow

|  | Do not create tasks that contain multiple unconnected task flows

|  | Do not create tasks that daisy-chain unrelated activities from a single event, such as a single Schedule step initiating tasks involving unrelated information, people, or systems
