Is it possible to retrieve the tp!id (task id) from a task when its assigned? I have an ac value "taskid" where I am assigning the value as tp!id and saving off into pv!taskid all on the input. I need the task Id to pass to a notifications sub-process to generate a link to that task to put in the reminder to complete task email.

When I run the process it does not seem to be generating a task id except on output; meaning I have to complete the task before the id is generated. As you can see if that happens there is no need for reminder emails.

Mike, attached is the snap shot of a mocked up solution you might be interested in.

The key to this solution is a plugin developed by Appian PS team which provides a function/expression to query a task id based on a process id and a task name. Once you can get the task id, you can construct the url like this... rule!APN_getSiteUrl() & "tempo/tasks/task/" & pv!taskId

I have submitted that "Get Process Task ID" plugin to shared component and hopefully should be available soon once approved.
