Ability to Set Task Properties via FlexiTask Action
When creating a normal SP task, you can set item properties on the task. With the flexi task action, developers are unable to set item properties on the flexi task other than due date and the the usual subjects. If you extend the Flexi Task content type to include site columns you want to tag by, you are unable to. If you try to update the task outside of the flexi task action, the workflow errors.

We have a need for custom properties in Flexi tasks too. Any chance this could be implemented soon?

Mapping data to additional Flex/Approval task columns would indeed be a welcome extension

This is a basic one. I'm crashing a lot of workflows trying to add custom values to a flexi-task. Why is not possible to set all metadata values from the Nintex Workflow Action?

Right now my users look at Nintex Workflow and think that it is very slow

It is absolutely necessary to me.
We collect information by workflow and I want add this information to task. But it impossible!!
Right now I add this information by another workflow and custom event recivers in Task list.
As a result, we have problem with loked tasks.https://community.nintex.com/docs/DOC-1256
This problem will be resolved if Nintex implements our offer.

Agreed, being able to add column information to Flexi tasks via the workflow action when it is created would be very helpful. Right now I am forced to put the data I need in the title or description and then use a workflow in the task list to break the string down and complete the columns when the task is created.
