Behind this dataset

Same schema. As many rows as you need.

These 200 rows came out of a blueprint — 15 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.

Rules it was built with
  • Task ID unique within project
  • Due date after creation date
  • Status: todo, in progress, completed
  • Dependencies reference other tasks
  • Estimated vs actual hours tracked
