Request for Information - Add images to local CVAT instance to an existing task or a new task,

A user wishes to upload a batch of images to my local CVAT platform. I am looking for an API endpoint which will allow the user to upload images to an existing task with an existing Job. Is this possible?
Or do I have to create a new task? But creation of new task API only creates a new task without anyway to create a job within the task and add images. I am stuck in a loop.

Are there a set of API endpoints that I can use so that the user can upload image via the endpoints to my CVAT platform? I do not care if it leads to creation of a new task or a new job. I need to the images to just upload to my CVAT platform.

As far as I know using the UI, once a task is created I cannot create a job within the task and once a task and job are crated I cannot add images to the existing job. So, how do I create a new task, a new Job and add images/videos to the job in one go?

Since this is a request for information the following questions do not require any answers.

Generally, it is not possible. Please, refer to the original issue #95.

You can add images/video to a created task only once. Depending on this request a set of jobs is created within the task.
Refer to API specification (localhost:8080/api/swagger) for details
