Bonitasoft Delegation API is one of 76 APIs that [Bonitasoft](https://apis.io/providers/bonitasoft/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Delegation. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, an API reference, and API documentation.

Delegate human tasks from one user (the delegator) to another (the delegate) for a bounded period and a whitelist of processes. Delegation grants the delegate visibility and execution rights on the delegator's tasks without reassigning them: ownership and the audit trail are preserved. A user can hold at most one delegation rule at a time, and a rule's status (scheduled, active, expired) is derived from its date range. Id fields are sent as numeric `int64` in request bodies but returned as strings in responses, to avoid JavaScript precision loss on large `long` values; this is intentional and documented per field. There is no `GET /API/delegation/rule/{ruleId}`: the engine does not expose a single-rule read, so fetch a rule through the search endpoint (`GET /API/delegation/rule`) filtered by `id`. This is a known API gap, not a spec omission. This Web REST API is available in **Enterprise editions only**, since version 2026.2.
