It would be great if we could reference tasks by their name rather than by UID in other jobs/tasks.
The syntax could be job name.task name
This would need the task name to be unique within any given job

Hi Alex,

Did you know that you can use the task order number within the same job instead of the UID?
That could make reading easier.
Outside the job you now need the UID indeed.

Erik

Thanks Erik, yes was aware that it's possible to use the task number but that doesn't help a huge amount with readability in this case. We try and make the task name as descriptive as possible
