Tasks run assistant or agent work on a schedule or on demand, without a full workflow. Use tasks for recurring jobs such as daily summaries. Use workflows when the job needs multiple connected steps — a workflow can also run on a schedule from its Start trigger. Each task is attached to one assistant or one agent. Agents usually carry unattended runs. Assistants can also have tasks attached during setup.
