assigned_to_id created task

Joseph Nalbone

Hello,

I use the meistertask api to create a task on a specific section.

The task is created correctly but I would like to assign it to a person in my team by default.

I have seen in the documentation: https://developers.meistertask.com/reference/post-task

That it is possible to assign a task to a person with the parameter: assigned_to_id

However, I can't find the IDs of the members of my meistertask. Do you know how to find this information?

Thank you

Hi @Joseph Nalbone 👋🙂

I have tried to find the corresponding information for you.

Can you please try the following steps?

1. Retrieve list of project members: Use the API endpoint GET /projects/{project_id}/memberships from the MeisterTask API. Replace {project_id} with the ID of the project in which you are looking for the member IDs.
2. Execute API call: This API call will give you a list of all the members of the project along with their details, including the user_id.
3. Identify ID of the desired member: In the API response, you will find the user_id for each member. This is the ID that you can use for the assigned_to_id parameter to assign tasks.

Here is an example of the API call:

GET https://www.meistertask.com/api/projects/{project_id}/memberships
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN

Replace YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN with your valid API token.

After executing the call, you will receive a response in JSON format containing, among other things, the user IDs. You can then use the corresponding user_id to assign the task.

Is that working for you?

Best, Jörg
