Getting the ID of a Workflow Task

Getting the ID of a Workflow Task

Hi guys

I have a Blueprint which - as a Deal proceeds through it - automatic tasks are created via Workflow Tasks.

This is great, but it relies on CRM users having to manually close tasks as they proceed through the Blueprint.

Ive written a function  which closes redundant tasks. Its basically:

  1. relatedTask = zoho.crm.getRelatedRecords("Tasks","Deals",dealID.toLong());

  3. for each  task in relatedTask
  4. if(task.get("Status") != "Completed")
  5. {

  7. if(stage == "Stage 1")
  8. {
  9. if(task.get("Subject").contains("Stage 1 Task"))
  10. {
  11. mapVariable = Map();
  12. mapVariable.put("Status","Completed");
  13. updateTask = zoho.crm.updateRecord("Tasks",task.get("id"),mapVariable);
  14. }
  15. }
  16. else if(stage == "Stage 2")
  17. {
  18. if(task.get("Subject").contains("Stage 2 Task"))
  19. {
  20. mapVariable = Map();
  21. mapVariable.put("Status","Completed");
  22. updateTask = zoho.crm.updateRecord("Tasks",task.get("id"),mapVariable);
  23. }
  24. }
  25. }
  26. }

This is great but it relies on the tasks containing a string to identify the task to close. If someone renames the task, then it wont get closed automatically.

What I need to do is be able to target the ID of the workflow task. I can see it in the url via the CRM interface:

https://crm.zoho.eu/crm/####/settings/workflow-tasks/485458000000710170

So how can I get at the ID?

Thanks
