Default Specifying both Task Start and Task End Date...

I have a Project Plan in our application which we need to keep in Sync with a Project on Project Server. While pushing new tasks, I have to try to push them with the mentioned start and end dates from my application.

I understand from the SDK that we can only EITHER specify the date the task can start on OR the date it can end on, using TASK_CONSTRAINT_TYPE in combo with TASK_CONSTRAINT_DATE. But we can't specify both dates and expect MSP to fix both start and end dates of the task. Is this right? Is there no way to fix both dates?

That is correct. Project schedules from either the start or end, not both.
