Task Verification

This article will explain how Task Verification works in Playbook, how to configure it for a Task, and how completed Tasks are verified.


What Is Task Verification?

  • Task Verification is an optional feature that adds a verification stage after a Task has been completed.

  • When enabled, one or more Task Verifiers are assigned to review the completed Task and confirm that it meets the required standard before it is considered verified.

  • Task Verification provides an additional quality assurance step for Tasks that require formal review or approval before completion.
