Example

If we had an approval task in our database with an Id of 10000 and had the following attributes

Code Block

theme	Eclipse
title	Approval Task - 10000

{
   "projectName": "Project 1",
   "projectVersionName": "1.0.21",
   "workflowRequestId": 11701,
   "projectId": 10002,
   "taskId": 10000,
   "status": "PENDING",
   "environmentId": 16109,
   "flexFields": [],
   "requestType": "Project",
   "requestorPath": "FlexDeploy / Application 1",
   "notes": null
}

When we run a GET request at the following URL

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/tasks/approval/10000

The GET request would return the following JSON approval task object

Code Block

theme	Eclipse
title	Approval Task - 10000

{
   "projectName": "Project 1",
   "projectVersionName": "1.0.21",
   "workflowRequestId": 11701,
   "projectId": 10002,
   "taskId": 10000,
   "status": "PENDING",
   "environmentId": 16109,
   "flexFields": [],
   "requestType": "Project",
   "requestorPath": "FlexDeploy / Application 1",
   "notes": null
}

GET (Using Query Parameters)

This GET service will return a list of approval tasks in the form of JSON objects based on a query parameter for the display name. Approval tasks are only returned if they contain the specified parameter. If no query parameters are given this request will return the entire list of approval tasks.

Info

title	API URLs

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/tasks/approval?

projectId = {projectId}

applicationId = {applicationId}
