API Tasks documentation

[Jeffrey_Seaman]

I've reviewed a few of the 22.1 videos and was intrigued by the new "API Tasks" functionality. I can see some potential uses of this feature for some integrations our customers are interested in.

The Workflow video said to refer to the 22.1 Workflow MRG for more information. I've checked this MRG and it appears this feature is not included in the documentation outside of referencing "Workflow API Tasks" as being one of the items that can be exported/imported in a bulleted list. There's also a reference to "Web/API Tasks", but that is described as a legacy feature that seems to be from the early web client days.

I did manage to find a brief overview of the feature in the REST API documentation, but I'm not having any luck finding anything under the Unity API documentation.

Did this maybe not make it into the Workflow MRG in time? Any thoughts on when the Unity API documentation will be updated (or direction on where to find it if it is already there)?

Hi @Jeffrey Seaman,

Here is some information on how to Assign Web/API Tasks to a User Group from the Workflow Configuration MRG 22.1.

I hope this is what you are looking for.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, no. That documentation is related to the older functionality mentioned in my original post (and present in MRGs from years ago). I am talking about API Tasks which were newly introduced with 22.1, but does not seem to be included in the 22.1 Workflow MRG contrary what was described in the 22.1 what's new videos.

Here is the documentation straight from the SDK.

Yes, I linked to that in my original post. My point was that there does not seem to be any information regarding the configuration of these tasks within the Workflow MRG contrary to what was described in Hyland's videos regarding the latest release. I would expect detailed documentation within the Workflow guide, not a brief overview of the feature in the REST API documentation. The video also says calling these API tasks is available to the Unity API, but I am not having luck finding that documentation.
