Join the LiquidPlanner Developer Forum > send trigger on task completion

Hello LP world!
I'm new to the LP API and a quick overview doesn't look like there's any way to trigger an event when a task is completed. Ideally I would like to send an email, make a web service call or make a http post.

This release of the API doesn't implement any sort of push (i.e. no triggers, webhooks, pub-sub, event callbacks, etc.). What you want to do is reasonable but we have not yet built a mechanism for it.

As a workaround (or kludge...) you can pull / poll for tasks that have a recent "date_done" field.

Assuming your workspace has ID 123 and you're looking for tasks done some time in the previous 1 day, you would make a request like:

https://app.liquidplanner.com/api/workspaces/123/tasks?filter[]=date_done%20within%201

The downside here (compared to a push / callback) is that you're responsible for scheduled polling of the server and for tracking whether you've already triggered an event for a given item.
