I hope someday CA will upgrade Workflow Tasks up to regular ticket object, with normal methods and act logging

As far as I found currently there is no specified status change method, so using update_object is a correct way.

Hi everyone,

 

A new result of my attempts with this method; I guess it does not work for wf.

I'm trying to update the status of a pending workflow with the same syntax above. But I got errors; see lines in bold.

update_object or update_object_super updates the status of WF but it does not let start the next workflow, I mean the status of next workflow remains "wait" not updated to "pending"

I looked for any specific method in order to complete a workflow but I couldn't find anything

 

I'll appreciate if someone has any replacement / suggestion for this functionality on wf object
