Tasks

There is a built-in Tasks component RequestApprovalEmail. This component is more like a template, something you can use and built your own version that better fits into your platform. Although, even this component may be useful.

This component sends one email to the requestor and another email to the approver. It uses the Appmixer Mandrill account to do that. Those emails contain a few Appmixer related information - Reply-To, From Email, ... These can be configured using Backoffice.

Possible configuration for RequestApprovalEmail component.

The email contains an Appmixer logo by default, you can change that by setting logoURL key in the Backoffice and pointing that to your own product log.

The last thing is the PEOPLE_TASKS_DASHBOARD_URL environment variable that has to be set for the Appmixer engine. This URL will be used in the RequestApprovalEmail component to create links in the email that is sent to the approver. This has to point to a page in your application that will display the tasks. That is a page that implements the appmixer.ui.PeopleTasks widget.
