Qlik Saas API for manually triggering Task schedule Reload

Hello,

With the new task chaining functionality on Qlik saas we're setting up our chain reloads with after succeed/failed.

This always request a task as pre-requisite (not an app) so the very first one still needs to be a scheduled task.

Through the Qlik Web Client, I can force a manual run the scheduled task , which is correctly triggering all the chain reloads afterwards.

But I can't seem to find out a way to manually run this task through API.

The reload API only allows an appID to be reloaded (and thus doesn't start the chain). https://qlik.dev/apis/rest/reloads/

The Task API only allows create /update/deletion... I thought about updating the task everytime but I would like to try to avoid this. https://qlik.dev/apis/rest/reload-tasks/

I've tried creating an automation that would trigger the reload scheduler as well (I can start an automation through rest api), but there's no block for it there.

Is there a way to manually trigger a reload scheduler through rest API?
