In order to facilitate the management of tasks, WEBCON BPS provides the functionality of marking tasks, also called flagging. Users can change the flags of the tasks to which they are assigned, both from the document and from a properly configured report.

Timers are elements that allow you to define the frequency with which the associated actions are performed. Thanks to them, it is possible to define the start time and the possible repetition cycle of such actions.

The OAuth2 authentication standard is becoming increasingly popular, as it enables integration between different systems.

But what if it is crucial to determine the user's context? This need is answered by the OAuth2 Authentication form field, which allows the user to be authenticated before connecting to the API and performing operations. The scenario described herein presents this feature using communication between MS Graph and Microsoft Azure.
