Human tasks - life cycle
In the preceding diagram, the Human task component box represents the core of the human
task service. It provides methods to create tasks, assign them, start them, complete them,
and much more. We'll learn more about the different stages in a human task's life cycle in
our tasks, depending on their assignment, who can work on them, and whether they've
already been started, claimed, skipped, or completed. All these statuses are based on an
industry-based, strong standard called
Web Service Human Task
(
WS-HT
). It provides
core definitions to structure our tasks and define their stages.
