25.1.9.1.7.1 Defining Updatable Task Parameters

Define updatable task parameters to collect values from the task owner.

If a task requires the actual owner to supply additional data values, model them as updatable task parameters. Notice below that the Provide Two Random Numbers task definition accepts two read-only ones to specify the purpose of the request and the requested username. It also defines two updatable parameters P_VALUE1 and P_VALUE2. They let the actual owner provide two values while completing the task. The workflow can retrieve these task parameter values using an API in the APEX_HUMAN_TASK package.
