Task Activities

Tasks allow your workflows to request approval or ask a question before taking an action. For example, you could have a workflow detect a compromised endpoint and request approval before enabling host isolation. Another example would be creating a task to ask which subnet to deploy a new virtual machine in.

Note: Variable size is limited to 1 MB. As of October 4, 2023, the size of the Large String workflow variable type is limited to 10 MB.

The following task activities are available:

Note: Both the Create Approval Request and Wait For Event activities have been deprecated (release 2.36) and removed from Automation (release 2.40). They no longer work in workflows. Instead, please use the combined Request Approval activity.
