Scope: task

Who can execute the method: any user

The method tasks.task.get returns information about a task by its ID.

Others can only see tasks available to them.

Method Parameters

Name
type

Description

taskId
integer

The ID of the task.

The task ID can be obtained when creating a new task or by using the get task list method

select
array

An array of record fields that will be returned by the method. You can specify only the fields you need. If the array contains the value "*", all available fields will be returned.

By default, it returns all fields except for custom ones. It is recommended to specify specific fields in the selection, as default fields may change.

System fields UF_CRM_TASK, UF_TASK_WEBDAV_FILES, and UF_MAIL_MESSAGE are not returned by default. Specify one of these fields in SELECT to retrieve their values.

To retrieve custom fields, include them in SELECT. You can find the names of custom fields using the tasks.task.getFields method.

The field CHAT_ID, the chat ID for the new task card, is returned by default. Use its value to work with chat methods.
