    abstract =  {Many CoAP deployments need to start operations that cannot be completed within one request/response exchange. Existing deployments commonly model these operations with application-specific resources, payload formats, and polling or notification conventions. This makes clients, gateways, and proxies unable to interoperate across implementations that expose otherwise similar long-running operations. This document defines a CoAP task-resource pattern for asynchronous operations. It specifies a small set of CoAP Options and a CBOR status representation that allow a server to create a temporary task resource, allow a client to monitor, update, or cancel that task using existing CoAP methods, and allow task-state and task-progress observations to reuse the Conditional Query Parameters defined for CoAP Observe {[}I-D.ietf-core-conditional-attributes{]}. Autonomous control agents are one motivating use case, but the mechanisms are intended to be generally usable for constrained applications that need interoperable task orchestration.},
