Can anyone help me on how to use Script Task to capture process initiator, set current date/time, and set a status for the process ?
I will also like to know how I can make a process name dynamic. Thank you

Hi, first I would recommend reviewing the documentation on Configuring Script Tasks and Process Model Properties - as well as the Process Modeling Tutorial. There is a plethora of other fantastic documentation available as well, always great to review especially if you are new to Appian.
Otherwise, within Process Model Properties, the Process Display Name is expressionable - we rarely have a static name here, often including a unique "Process Number" value.
Process initiator can be retrieved with "=pp!initiator", current datetime can be retrieved with "=now()". These can be used in the script task's Node Outputs to update process variables / CDTs as needed. Process Status is typically set with text values as "Active", "Completed", "Cancelled", etc.
