- Method Detail
  - getId
```
String getId()
```
    Returns:
    the id of the task
  - getTopicName
```
String getTopicName()
```
    Returns:
    the name of the topic the task belongs to
  - getWorkerId
```
String getWorkerId()
```
    Returns:
    the id of the worker that has locked the task
  - getLockExpirationTime
```
Date getLockExpirationTime()
```
    Returns:
    the absolute time at which the lock expires
  - getProcessInstanceId
```
String getProcessInstanceId()
```
    Returns:
    the id of the process instance the task exists in
  - getExecutionId
```
String getExecutionId()
```
    Returns:
    the id of the execution that the task is assigned to
  - getActivityId
```
String getActivityId()
```
    Returns:
    the id of the activity for which the task is created
  - getActivityInstanceId
```
String getActivityInstanceId()

  - getProcessDefinitionKey
```
String getProcessDefinitionKey()
```
    Returns:
    the key of the process definition the task's activity belongs to
  - getRetries
```
Integer getRetries()
```
    Returns:
    the number of retries left. The number of retries is provided by a task client, therefore the initial value is null.

```
String getErrorMessage()
```
    Returns:

  - getVariables
```
org.camunda.bpm.engine.variable.VariableMap getVariables()
```
    Returns:
    a map of variables that contains an entry for every variable that was specified at fetching time, if such a variable exists in the task's ancestor execution hierarchy.
  - getTenantId
```
String getTenantId()
```
    Returns:
    the id of the tenant the task belongs to. Can be null if the task belongs to no single tenant.
