Hey there, I’m checking on CRM tasks. In the Task Status, I’m getting NOT\_STARTED and Completed Tasks, but how to identify which tasks are in progress?

Hey, @teja21 👋 It looks like you’ll need to gather these specific tasks via the API. You can either make a request to the Tasks API enpoint for all tasks and then parse out the “IN\_PROGRESS” Tasks on your end. Or you can make a request to the Search API and utilize the `EQ` filter to only return tasks with that status. The in-app filter only offers the two statues you noted in your post.

Examples:

[**Task API**](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/crm/tasks) — List GET /crm/v3/objects/tasks

Request

```lia-code-sample
curl --request GET \
 --url 'https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/tasks?limit=100&properties=hs_task_status&archived=false' \
 --header 'authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'

```

**[Search API](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/crm/search)**

```lia-code-sample
POST https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/tasks/search 

```

Request body

```lia-code-sample
{
 "filterGroups": [
 {
 "filters": [
 {
 "propertyName": "hs_task_status",
 "operator": "EQ",
 "value": "IN_PROGRESS"
 }
 ]
 }
 ]
}

```

Please let me know if you have any additional questions! — Jaycee

HI @teja21

You can get the status of the task with this property **hs\_task\_status.**
