Response example

Only the main fields of the task object are shown.

JSON 
{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "task": {
      "id": "289",
      "title": "Prepare the quarterly report",
      "status": "2",
      "statusChangedDate": "2026-10-13T13:46:47+02:00",
      "createdBy": "27",
      "responsibleId": "1",
      "closedDate": null,
      "taskControl": "Y",
      "action": {
        "start": true,
        "pause": false,
        "complete": true,
        "approve": false,
        "disapprove": false,
        "defer": true,
        "renew": false
      }
    }
  }
}

Error response example

422 — the task is not awaiting review, for example because it is already completed:

JSON 
{
  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "BITRIX_ERROR",
    "message": "Action unavailable",
    "b24Code": "1048582"
  }
}

The error.message text comes from Bitrix24, so its wording and language depend on the Bitrix24 account language. Branch on error.code, not on the message text.

Known specifics

  • The action works only on a task in the Awaiting Control status. A task reaches this status when its taskControl review is enabled and someone other than the creator completes it. After a rejection the assignee can complete the task again, and it goes back to review.
  • Availability is visible in advance. The action map in the GET /v1/tasks/:id response shows disapprove: true when the key's user can reject the result right now. Checking it before the call avoids a 422 response.
  • A missing task does not return 404. An unknown taskId gets the same 422 BITRIX_ERROR with the message Action unavailable as a task in the wrong status. To tell the two apart, request the task with GET /v1/tasks/:id: for a missing task it returns 404.
