Get a workflow transition
Workflow transitions define the legal moves between workflow states, and who may approve them. Read a single workflow transition by id.
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 resource belongs to. Accepts the project UUID or its bare identifier, for example ENG.
workflow_id:requiredstring (uuid)The workflow the resource belongs to.
pk:requiredstring (uuid)The workflow transition id.
Response shaping
fields:optionalstringComma-separated list of fields to return. Unrequested keys are omitted, not returned as null. id always comes back. Pass all for every requestable field. An unknown name is a 400. See Sparse fields.
Requestable here: created_at, created_by_id, id, member_ids, rejection_state_id, required_approvals, transition_state_id, workflow_state_id.
