Yes.You will get activiti Id from that task id.

WorkflowTask workflowTask =serviceRegistry.getWorkflowService().getTaskById("activiti$18563");
String activitiId=workflowTask.getPath().getInstance().getId();

Hi Sanjay,

Thanks for the answer. I do not have alfresco SDK setup and hence I could not do this in Java.

I found an API provided by alfresco that returns details about a task :

https://<Domain name>/alfresco/service/api/task-instances/activiti$<taskidentifier>.

It throws lots of details about this task in JSON. I pull the activiti ID like this:

JSON.parse(result)["data"]["workflowInstance"]["id"]
