Intended way to call async and ignore result about taskbuilder.fs HOT 2 CLOSED

I just use let! _ = in my own code. It does look a little odd but in my view, it is equally or slightly more clear what's happening in let! _ = someTask compared to do! Task.Ignore(someTask).
You can't end a task { } block with let! _ = ..., but in my mind it reads fine to just add another line of return ().
Or just write do! ... :> Task.

That said, if you prefer to use a wrapper function in your codebase there is nothing wrong with doing so.

Yeah the wrapper function did work for us, do! ... |> Task.Ignore but I kinda like the do! ... :> Task too.

module Task =
    let Ignore (resultTask:Task<_>): Task = upcast resultTask

Thanks!
