Get a workflow activity
Retrieve one entry from a project workflow's audit trail by id. The entry must belong to the workflow in the path. An entry from another workflow returns 404.
Path parameters
slug:requiredstringThe workspace slug. It appears in your Plane URLs. In https://app.plane.so/my-team/projects/, the slug is my-team.
project_id:requiredstringThe project the workflow belongs to. Accepts the project UUID or its bare identifier, for example ENG.
workflow_id:requiredstring (uuid)The workflow the entry belongs to.
pk:requiredstring (uuid)The id of the activity entry.
Response shaping
fields:optionalstringComma-separated list of fields to return. Fields you don't request are left out of the response instead of coming back as null, so a missing key means you didn't ask for it and null means the value is null. id is always included, whether or not you name it.
Pass all to get every requestable field. An unknown field name returns 400 with the list of valid names and the closest match, so a typo is caught instead of being silently ignored.
Requestable here: actor_id, created_at, epoch, field, id, new_identifier, new_value, old_identifier, old_value, state_id, verb, workflow_id.
See Sparse fields.
