      public class SetPropertiesTask
      extends ComponentTask

  Gets the value properties from a component and makes them available within the workflow as the `last task output`.

  For a canvas the `componentId` specifies everything necessary to identify the target. For a form control more information is needed. The `componentId` identifies the container (i.e. DynamicForm) and the individual field is specified as `targetFieldName`.

  SetPropertiesTask is an advanced and rarely used task. If you need a component property to be dynamic, you can configure that property as a Dynamic Property without the need for a Workflow. Dynamic Properties created this way automatically update as your users make changes.
