Task Statuses

IMPORTANT

The old task status restrictions will be replaced by Transition Sets in version 2.38.0

Task instances all have a Status, and changing the status of a task causes AireFlow to emit an event. The status is intended to represent the real world state of a task in an easy to understand way.

There is an API available at /Api/TaskStatus/Statuses to fetch the supported task statuses, and the list may be expanded over time.

Status Validation

Validation is applied when a task status is changed, to prevent tasks being moved to illogical statuses (for example, moving from Complete to New doesn't make sense).

Manual Task Transitions

Automatic Task Transitions (Email, Http, AireFrame - Create Form, Publish Event)

Form Task Transitions

There is also an API available at /Api/TaskStatus/v2/Transitions to see which task status transitions can be performed by making a PATCH request to /Api/Tasks/{taskId}. The previous API /Api/TaskStatus/Transitions can still be accessed which shows the legacy transition states but this is now obsolete and should be updated to the v2 endpoint.
