Sample: Readings export using task API

This sample shows a basic Readings Export request. The RunTask operation is marked in bold. The document that is created by the Readings Export is returned in the results document.

Tip: Use different templates for RunTask operations and ScheduleTask operations, to distinguish them in the IEE rich client Task Monitor. Too many API tasks might account for a slow web server.
