Comments API

To fetch comments for a task in your workflow, issue a GET request to the comments endpoint:

https://app.flowdash.com/api/v1/workflows/<workflow-id>/tasks/<unique_id>/comments

For example,

curl https://app.flowdash.com/api/v1/workflows/<workflow-id>/tasks/123/comments \
    --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'

Example response

[
   {
      "author" : "harry@hogwarts.com",
      "body" : "comment number one!",
      "timestamp" : "2021-06-22T22:39:48Z"
   },
   {
      "author" : "harry@hogwarts.com",
      "body" : "Tagging you for visibility @Ron Weasley",
      "timestamp" : "2021-06-22T22:39:52Z"

All comments created via the API will have the author set to “API”. You can also mention users by including the @ symbol and the user’s full name:
