Involved user filter is not working!

Hey there,

I want to have a filter that shows all tasks a given user was involved.

filter
filter857×216 6.01 KB

This filter is not working as I expected!

I also tried to use rest API to match this criterion.
GET /task/count?involvedUser=john
result1

But this criterion worked fine in history API.
GET /history/task/count?taskInvolvedUser=john&finished=false
result2

Can someone tell me what I did wrong?

Hi @arya,

A task filter queries the runtime task instances, so the filter can only apply to tasks that the user is currently involved in, not to to tasks that the user was involved in. Tasklist does not display historic tasks.

Cheers,
Thorben

Thanks for your replay,

So what is the difference between assignee and involved user ?

For future reference:
InvolvedUser means any identity link between the task and the provided user.
Identity link can be assignment + candidates
