Tasks can be created from a TaskTemplate, with a specific configuration.
All templates can be viewed from Operations > Tasks Templates (or go directly to /home/operations/tasks-templates).
You will see all available task templates along with their corresponding release phase. By clicking on the name of a task template, you can access more details about it.
Steps to create a task

- In the following screen, you must select the cluster where the task will be applied, along with the corresponding credentials.
