How do I setup a workflow to auto delegate task to a single user?

How do I setup a workflow to auto delegate task to a single user? I don't require any approvals to occur in the workflow. As far as i can guess, i need to do a work around that uses 'assign flexi task' to auto accept after 1 minue then use the action id as a variable to feed into the 'delegate task' to auto delegate to the user. Is there a better way?

why do you need to autodelegate task right after it is created?

why don't you directly set assignee to one whom should it be delegated?

The flexi task will give u its ID after its approved but not while its created. but there's a work around to that , you can use a parallel action to get it by querying the workflow tasks list for the latest created ID for the same list item but u need to use pause action on this branch to ensure that the flexi task is created before doing the query. 

Then you can use the ID to feed into your delegate action.
