I have a workflow where tasks will occasionally be delegated to users. This workflow is running on a library, my question is, is there a way to capture the name that the task is being delegated to? The end user wants this name to get populated in a custom column so that they can keep track of who the task has been assigned to.

 

We are on SP 2013

Hi Kurt R,

In my opinion, the Last Task respondent will capture the value only when the task is completed and not when the task is delegated. There is no way within the task action to capture this value.

Rency Gonzalez,

This question has been asked many times on this community. try searching and you should find a response. There are ways of getting it by creating workflow on the task list or by creating parallel branch in the workflow to query the task list, see reference:
