Process
Renaming existing Tasks
redae
over 7 years ago
Hi,
We would like to rename some already existing tasks. Since we can't alter task column name directly using SQL query - is there any other mechanism we can use to achieve this ?
we are using Appian onCloud.
Thanks

Not aware of any other approach other than using the 'Set Task Display Name' Shared Component at
http://bit.ly/2eqSwTr
. So ideally you should be getting the required tasks(or get the required tasks from the process id and task name by using any of the plugins available in the Forum) in the first place and then trigger a process for each task that derives the latest name to be used based on business conditions and then set the name of the task by using the plugin at
http://bit.ly/2eqSwTr.
As I am neither sure about the number of tasks you would want to reset nor the complexity of the expression that drives the desired task name, I would suggest basic measures such as batch processing, execution engine balancing etc to be taken care of.
In case if the expression to derive the task name for each task is too simple, maybe, you can even skip the MNI by using the parallel flows as mentioned at
http://bit.ly/2dkN7QI
which will keep the process much more simple.
