Hi,
Is there a way to get the link of a pending task, I want to use the link (put it in an email reminder) to send to someone to whom a task is assigned. The native deadline functionality won't work in this case due to business requirements, the deadlines are customized.
Thanks,
Arjun

    Arjun, great to see you in Community!

    I have a general building recommendation.

    Two steps start at the same time. One step is the task. The other step is a delayed email with a condition. This delayed email sends if the task is pending for X time and it includes a runID URL in the email body.

    This way, the email recipient can access the URL and filter the instance steps to Status is assigned.

    Unfortunately, getting the URL of a Pending task is not an available feature today. For a feature request related to this need, I have a link below that I recommend upvoting.

    Thanks a lot for your thoughts Jozef.
    Yes, I might be able to use the RunID in the email reminder. Thanks makes sense.
