19.6.3.3 Copying a Task Definition

Copy an existing Task Definition from the Shared Components page, under the Workflows and Automations heading.

To copy a task definition:

  2. Navigate to the Task Definitions page:
    1. On the application home page, select Shared Components.
    2. Under Workflows and Automations, select Task Definitions.
  3. Click Copy.
    The Copy Task Definition wizard appears.
  4. Specify the task definition you want to copy:
    1. Copy Source - Select This Application or Other Application.
    2. Applications - Choose the application you want to copy the task definition from.
      This option only appears if you selected Other Application.
    3. Copy Task Definition - Choose the task definition to copy.
    4. New Name - Provide a name for the copied task definition

  6. APEX copies the task definition:
    • Copy Task Definition copies the settings, deadline, participants, actions, and parameters from the original task. The task details page is not copied.
    • If the task definition uses any shared components (like email templates or Rest Data Sources), those shared components are copied to the target application if they are not already there.
    • Subscriptions are not copied.
  7. Click on the task definition name to edit it.
  8. Set the Task Details Page Number. If a Task Details Page already exists for this application, enter the URL here. Otherwise, select Create Task Details Page to create a new page.
