Task Purpose
The concatArray task is used to combine the elements of one array with another. The array that returns will contain copies of all the elements combined from the original two arrays. Essentially, this task does not change the original arrays, but returns a new array, containing the values of the joined arrays.
Potential Use Case
The concatArray copies object references into a new array. If you have two datasets and want to combine them into one, then you could use the concatArray task.
