Returns a list of butler tasks
### Example Usage
```java
package hello.world;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.PlexAPI;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.models.errors.GetButlerTasksBadRequest;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.models.errors.GetButlerTasksUnauthorized;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.models.operations.GetButlerTasksResponse;
import java.lang.Exception;
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) throws GetButlerTasksBadRequest, GetButlerTasksUnauthorized, Exception {
PlexAPI sdk = PlexAPI.builder()
.accessToken("<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>")
.build();
GetButlerTasksResponse res = sdk.butler().getButlerTasks()
.call();
if (res.object().isPresent()) {
// handle response
}
}
}
```
### Response
**[GetButlerTasksResponse](../../models/operations/GetButlerTasksResponse.md)**
### Errors
| Error Type | Status Code | Content Type |
| ---------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| models/errors/GetButlerTasksBadRequest | 400 | application/json |
| models/errors/GetButlerTasksUnauthorized | 401 | application/json |
| models/errors/SDKError | 4XX, 5XX | \*/\* |
## startAllTasks
This endpoint will attempt to start all Butler tasks that are enabled in the settings. Butler tasks normally run automatically during a time window configured on the server's Settings page but can be manually started using this endpoint. Tasks will run with the following criteria:
1. Any tasks not scheduled to run on the current day will be skipped.
2. If a task is configured to run at a random time during the configured window and we are outside that window, the task will start immediately.
3. If a task is configured to run at a random time during the configured window and we are within that window, the task will be scheduled at a random time within the window.
4. If we are outside the configured window, the task will start immediately.
### Example Usage
```java
package hello.world;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.PlexAPI;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.models.errors.StartAllTasksBadRequest;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.models.errors.StartAllTasksUnauthorized;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.models.operations.StartAllTasksResponse;
import java.lang.Exception;
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) throws StartAllTasksBadRequest, StartAllTasksUnauthorized, Exception {
PlexAPI sdk = PlexAPI.builder()
.accessToken("<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>")
.build();
StartAllTasksResponse res = sdk.butler().startAllTasks()
.call();
// handle response
}
}
```
### Response

## stopAllTasks
This endpoint will stop all currently running tasks and remove any scheduled tasks from the queue.
### Example Usage
```java
package hello.world;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.PlexAPI;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.models.errors.StopAllTasksBadRequest;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.models.errors.StopAllTasksUnauthorized;
import dev.plexapi.sdk.models.operations.StopAllTasksResponse;

public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) throws StopAllTasksBadRequest, StopAllTasksUnauthorized, Exception {
PlexAPI sdk = PlexAPI.builder()
.accessToken("<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>")
.build();
StopAllTasksResponse res = sdk.butler().stopAllTasks()
.call();
// handle response
}
}
```

## startTask
This endpoint will attempt to start a single Butler task that is enabled in the settings. Butler tasks normally run automatically during a time window configured on the server's Settings page but can be manually started using this endpoint. Tasks will run with the following criteria:
1. Any tasks not scheduled to run on the current day will be skipped.
2. If a task is configured to run at a random time during the configured window and we are outside that window, the task will start immediately.
3. If a task is configured to run at a random time during the configured window and we are within that window, the task will be scheduled at a random time within the window.
4. If we are outside the configured window, the task will start immediately.
