Use task records to find a specific Parse or Extract run, confirm its status, verify the settings used, and reopen the results.
After a Parse (document parsing) or Extract (field extraction) task is submitted successfully, a task record is generated. Task records let you find a specific run, confirm its status, verify the settings used at the time, and reopen the results.
When comparing historical results, compare the settings used by each of the two tasks. Editing the current configuration does not mean historical tasks also used the new settings. For the relationship between the two, see Save and Reuse Configurations.
When you are done, you should be able to find the target task and open the corresponding results. To view total processing volume over a period of time, go to Usage.

- You have submitted a parsing or extraction task.
- Have the complete task ID ready, or note the approximate submission date and the capability used.
