# ChangeStatus delegate

The **ChangeStatus** delegate changes the state of current business item in the process to a specified target state. The current business item is expected to be a representation.

| Field name            | Required | Description                                                                                                                                                                    |
| --------------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| parentId              | No       | If you want to override the default behavior that the status of the current business item is changed, you can fill in the ID of an existing term to change its status instead. |
| targetStatusId        | Yes      | Identify the target status -either id or signifier must be set, setting both will cause ID to be used.                                                                         |
| targetStatusSignifier |          |                                                                                                                                                                                |
| resultVariableName    | No       | The name of the variable that the result will be set in, if not given the result will be set in the variable named "output".                                                   |

The delegate is deprecated. Replace your service task containing this delegate with a script task, for example:

```
<scriptTask id="scripttask1" name="Mark as Accepted" scriptFormat="groovy" activiti:autoStoreVariables="false">
    <script><![CDATA[
        import com.collibra.dgc.core.api.dto.instance.asset.ChangeAssetRequest
        String acceptedStatusId = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000005009"
        assetApi.changeAsset(ChangeAssetRequest.builder()
            .id(item.id)
            .statusId(string2Uuid(acceptedStatusId))
            .build())
    ]]></script>
</scriptTask>
```

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://developer.collibra.com/workflows/designing-workflows/processes/shape-repository/service-task/delegates/changestatus-delegate.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
