Aspose.Tasks Cloud Java SDK helps software developers to create cloud‑based Java applications that can easily handle project management related tasks using Aspose.Tasks REST APIs. It enables users to interact with their Microsoft Project and Primavera files hosted on the cloud with ease, making it simple to access, read, and convert these files to other supported formats without any external software. Several popular project management file formats such as MPP, MPT, MPX, and Primavera P6 (XML, XER) are fully supported by the SDK. It is also possible to convert these formats to HTML, BMP, JPEG, PNG, SVG, TIFF, TXT, CSV, XLSX, XPS, and PDF. Users can work with project files stored in Aspose Cloud Storage or any supported cloud storage provider. The SDK supports numerous advanced features for project creation and manipulation, including assigning or removing tasks, adding or updating tasks, inserting or removing project calendars, retrieving project calendar items, handling calendar exceptions, working with task links, outline codes, extended attributes, creating or updating projects online, working with VBA, and managing time‑phased data.
