Hello Benjjenki,
can you tell a bit more about your requirement?
I am not 100% certain about the target.
It seems you try to send a URL of the user input task with the send e-mail node, so a user can click on it to go to the task?

yes exactly,

but once that task was submitted ,the flow should run forward like submitting the tasks in tempo

and also in this scenario send email node hits first before user input task

Thanks :-)

HI, You can construct a hyperlink with the help of your site link and task id and then use this URL in your email. To get the task id , you may need to add some delay before send email node so that your task id will be generated by that time.

    you can use HTML template for sending emails . Using Template will resolve your issue.construct the link template and just pass task id from process model.

      My ideal solution for this will be to add a timer before the email. 
      Let the timer wait for 5 seconds (now()+intervalds() function can help) and then use a task report to query the task ID from this process instance. 

      After that, you can keep the rest of the functionality same.

        Hi,

        You need split your flow into two before user input task using AND condition. Add a wait timer to before send email node (5 to 10 sec) get task id and then send email notification along with your task link.
