Running Your Task

Once you’ve created a Task, it’s time to test and run it. This guide covers how to execute your Task through the Rightbrain dashboard.

Accessing the Run Task View

Navigate to the Run Task view to test your Task execution. You can access this directly from your dash homepage or right after creating a task.

Let’s run through what you can expect to see in this view:

Configuration & Inputs

  • LLM model selection - primary and fallback
  • Input fields for your variables
  • Image upload for vision tasks
  • User & system prompts
  • Output format schema

Understanding Input Variables

Tasks are designed to run on dynamic input variables (e.g., {customer_review}). The platform automatically detects these variables from your prompts and creates corresponding input fields.

Plain Text Variables

  • Direct text entry for string variables
  • Support for long-form content
  • Special characters and emojis supported
  • No size limit for testing

Example variables: {customer_review}, {product_description}, {user_query}

Multiple Input Types: Tasks can combine different input types. For example, a task might compare text to images, summarise documents with web content, or analyse URLs alongside uploaded files.

Providing Test Data

Text Input Example

For our sentiment analysis task let’s provide a value for the input variable {customer_review}:

My toaster exploded during breakfast, sending flaming bread across the kitchen! 😱 On the bright side, I've discovered a new way to heat up the whole house.But seriously folks, this isn't just a hot topic – it's a fire hazard!The warranty card didn't mention anything about impromptu fireworks displays. 🎆

We simply hit Run Task and we’ll get a response:
