Description

The /tasks/find endpoint returns a 500 "Internal Server Error" when the onlyEnabled param is explicitly set to true, or not set at all (the default is true)

https://maproulette.org/api/v2/tasks/find?parentId=13527&limit=10&page=0&onlyEnabled=true

{"status":"KO","message":"ERROR: column \"enabled\" does not exist\n  Position: 265"}

Related question: Does the parentId param accept multiple ids? I'm looking if theres a way to fetch all the tasks for multiple challenges in a single request?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the /tasks/find request with onlyEnabled=true and without the parameter, then trace the endpoint implementation that produces the reported missing enabled column error. Done means the endpoint no longer returns 500 for the documented request; the parentId multiple-value question is separate and not defined by this report.
