Fetching a list of tasks that are in progress

Authenticate to the cloud platform via the Python shell.

The following variables should be available now:

>>> base_url  # the base URL of the API
'https://eu2-cloud.acronis.com/api/task_manager/v2'
>>> auth  # the 'Authorization' header value with the access token
{'Authorization': 'Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6ImMwMD...'}

Define a variable named filters, and then assign an object with the state key containing an array of task execution states to this variable:
```
>>> filters = {
...     'state': ['started', 'paused']
... }
```
Note

For the list of available task execution states, refer to the API reference.

Send a GET request to the /tasks endpoint:

>>> response = requests.get(f'{base_url}/tasks', headers=auth, params=filters)

Check the status code of the response:

>>> response.status_code
200

Status code 200 means that the request was successful.

A different status code means that an error has occurred. For the details, refer to “Status and error codes”.

Also, the response body contains the items array of task objects formatted as a JSON text. When converted to an object, it will look as follows:

>>> pprint.pprint(response.json())

            'cancellable': True,
