Link (Workflow Task)
View our Pricing & Plans for a detailed list and comparison of features available in each plan.
A workflow Link task must be a terminal task placed at the end of a branch, similar to a Complete Workflow or Cancel Workflow task. While the latter tasks end the workflow, the Link task allows you to redirect the workflow execution to another branch. This can be useful for creating back buttons or reusing business logic.
Note: Since Link tasks are terminal tasks they cannot be followed by another task.
