create dataset from sparql endpoint via API #68

Hi, We are trying to use silk REST API, and we want to generate links between two endpoints. From the Workbench editor you can create a new dataset from the sparql endpoint, but from the API we are not sure how this can be done. A more general question, the latest version of the API documentation is https://github.com/silk-framework/silk/blob/master/doc/RestInterface.md ? We cannot see the methods for creating/editing tasks/activities Any help would be appreciated @andreas-schultz @robertisele Thanks in advance!

Hi, the documentation of the REST API is currently lagging behind the commercially supported version of Silk. If you want to just execute a linking task using the API you can issue a POST request to '/workspace/projects/{projectName}/tasks/{linkingTaskName}/activities/GenerateLinks/start'
