changedBy

Represents the identity of the user who made the task change.

commentId

dueDateTime

id

The unique GUID of the task change.

percentComplete

Represents the task's completion percentage. It is used for the setPercentComplete change action. This is a value between 0 and 100, where 100 represents a completed task. Changing this value to 100 also completes the associated comment. Changing the completion from 100 to a lower value reactivates the associated comment.

Methods

load(options)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

load(propertyNames)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

load(propertyNamesAndPaths)

toJSON()

Overrides the JavaScript toJSON() method in order to provide more useful output when an API object is passed to JSON.stringify(). (JSON.stringify, in turn, calls the toJSON method of the object that is passed to it.) Whereas the original Excel.DocumentTaskChange object is an API object, the toJSON method returns a plain JavaScript object (typed as Excel.Interfaces.DocumentTaskChangeData) that contains shallow copies of any loaded child properties from the original object.
