Example
If we had an approval task in our database with the following attributes
Approval Task
{
"projectName": "Project 1",
"projectVersionName": "1.0.21",
"workflowRequestId": 11701,
"projectId": 10002,
"taskId": 11702,
"status": "PENDING",
"environmentId": 16109,
"flexFields": [],
"requestType": "Project",
"requestorPath": "FlexDeploy / Application 1",
"notes": null
}
When we run a PUT request at the following URL
http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/tasks/approval/reject?projectid=10002¬es=Approved+by+George
The PUT request would reject the approval task and return the following JSON approval task object
Approval Task
{
"projectName": "Project 1",
"projectVersionName": "1.0.21",
"workflowRequestId": 11701,
"projectId": 10002,
"taskId": 11702,
"status": "REJECTED",
"environmentId": 16109,
"flexFields": [],
"requestType": "Project",
"requestorPath": "FlexDeploy / Application 1",
"notes": null
}
