Human task events are sent if monitoring is requested for the elements of the task in IBM® Integration Designer. Use the information provided here for a detailed description of all of the events, that is, task events and escalation events, that can be emitted by human tasks.
An event is emitted when the state of a task changes. The following types of events can be caused by human tasks:
Note: For tasks that were created at run time, events are only emitted if the business relevance flag is set to true in the task model.

Inline tasks can emit both human task events and activity events. For a list of the activity events, see Activity events.

All human task events can be emitted in both the Dynamic Event Framework (DEF) and the audit trail, with the exception of the task template events. The task template events TASK_TEMPLATE_INSTALLED and TASK_TEMPLATE_UNINSTALLED can only be emitted in the audit trail.
