Change task assignment state
To update a task assignment's state call the
PUT /tasks/:task_id/assignments API and
include a resolution_state, such as completed, incomplete,
approved, or rejected.

});Resolution states
Box currently supports two types of tasks defined by the action value:
review tasks and complete tasks.
The type of task determines the possible resolution states a task can be in and the interface shown to a user in the web and mobile apps.
| Task action | Possible resolution states |
|---|---|
review | incomplete, approved, rejected |
complete | incomplete, complete |
A review task starts out in an incomplete state and can be marked as
incomplete, approved, or rejected. In the user interface a user is
provided with a text box and an pair of buttons to approve or reject the task.
A complete task starts out in an incomplete state and can be marked
incomplete or completed. Once a this task is marked completed, no
further changes can be made to the task's state. In the user interface a user is
provided with a text box and an button to mark the task as completed.
