When you open a task in AEM Forms workspace, a Task Summary pane can display a summary of the task. This additional and relevant information for a task adds more value for the end-user of AEM Forms workspace.
AEM Forms workspace allows you to display a web page of your choice in the Task Summary pane. A process can be created to display a Task Summary pane using Workbench.
Create an Assign Task process in Workbench. For more details about Assign Task operation, see Service Reference topic in Workbench Help.
If a TaskSummary URL exists, the Task Summary view opens by default instead of the Form view. In this case, even when a user enables ‘Open the form in maximized mode’ option in Assign Task, the form does not open in maximized mode.
Configure the Task Summary URL field. You can specify a literal value, a template, a variable, or an XPath expression.
An example of displaying the information on Task Summary page is below.
