### send

* `Const` **send**(`params`): `Promise<void>`

Send a job to your Task Client in a specific topic.

#### Parameters

<ParamField path="params" type="object" required>
  Object containing the parameters of the method.
</ParamField>

<Indent>
  <ParamField path="topic" type="string | string[]" required>
    Topic to send the task to. Previously known as `"context"` or `"contexts"`. Can also use `params.topics`.
  </ParamField>

  <ParamField path="message" type="Record<string, unknown>" required>
    Message to send.
  </ParamField>

  <ParamField path="project" type="string">
    SignalWire project id, e.g. `a10d8a9f-2166-4e82-56ff-118bc3a4840f`.
  </ParamField>

  <ParamField path="token" type="string">
    SignalWire project token, e.g. `PT9e5660c101...a360079c9`.
  </ParamField>

#### Returns

`Promise<void>`

#### Example

Sending a task with a message to then make an outbound Call. Please note that the call is *not* performed automatically: your [Task.Client][task-client] gives you back your payload, which you should interpret by your own custom logic.

```js
import { SignalWire } from "@signalwire/realtime-api";

const client = await SignalWire({ project: "ProjectID Here", token: "Token Here"})

const clientTask = client.task

const message = {
  'action': 'call',
  'from': '+1XXXXXXXXXX',
  'to': '+1YYYYYYYYYY'
}

const taskSend = await clientTask.send({
  topic: 'office',
  message: message
})
```
