Hi All,

I have tried options to do this but couldn't able to make it because I am unable to pull out task link in my email for that particular user

please help me on this!

Thanks in advance.

In the configuration of the "Assign Task", there is a parameter which allow to send reminder email:

In the email body, there are 2 links to the task as the screen shot displayed.

Did you implement this action in your workflow?

Hi Francois,

Thanks for the update,

but I want this to happen externally through an email with parallel task.

Thanks,

It seems there is a similar post here (about reminder): How to send a reminder email for task completion before task due date

About the link, you need to build it.

Get the Task Item ID on a Workflow Variable varTaskID (Task Item ID is initialized in the Assign A Task action), read the item in the Task list to get the Title (Query List action) and make the link about that element to put it in the notification.

.....it was the one created by me earlier but the solution which was provided was not working in my case

I am unable to get TaskID while task creation and getting a blank value in the reminder email

Anyway, I'm just pinging to find out whether you solved the issue with the help found in the Community or by yourself? If by yourself - can you share your solution? Can you mark any from the answers as "Correct"?
