Hi,  
Would it be possible to notify HubSpot users that they have been appointed a new task even though this task was created throught the API?  
This would be very useful, at the moment is there no way to do it and users have to actively check if they have new tasks.  
This could also be an optional parameter in the API endpoint.  
Thanks  
Marine

This is crucial for integrations to be useful at all- otherwise what is the point of the integration capability? Mainly replying to follow this thread.

Is there any update to this from 2024?? It still is a very limiting shortcoming of the tasks API.

Hi, we’ve changed the assigned task notification to work for tasks created by API.
