Add Workflow User Task On assign event

Question

Add Workflow User Task On assign event

1

Add the ability to execute a microflow whenever a User Task has been assigned to a user.

This can help to for example, change the status of a workflow context object or notify users that the task has been assigned.

The option can be placed in the Events tab of the Edit User Task dialogue, next to the "On created" event.

This would be great. I want to use this to change the status of my workflow context entity (e.g. change status to "Initiated" when a user with specific role self-asign the task). There is a way of doing this currently?

Thanks for the idea. A task can by assigned by the runtime (e.g. when the task page is opened via task inbox), or via setting the respective usertask-user association. What you suggested would work in the first case, but not in the second.
