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.

You are correct. The tp!ID is created, but is not saved back to the pv! (whether specificed in the Input or Output) until the task is submitted. I would suggest creating an Escalation and pass the tp!id to your Notification process using a Message Event.
