Hello,

I am currently trying out 'Nintex Forms for SharePoint 2019'. I have designed a workflow where if it requires approval from user A, during the 'pending task' period, the Admin user can modify the approver. This can be achieved using 'Delegate task', but how can I retrieve the 'Comments' entered by the Admin when delegating the task, or does Nintex provide additional APIs to perform the 'Delegate task' action?

Hi @Tannic,

The delegate comment is generally only used in the notification email sent to the user delegated the task.
 

To access this information, you must query the Nintex Content database which stores the site collection data to which the task list belongs. The table dbo.delegateHistory contains a column called comment.
