I'm creating a workflow that assigns a task to a person. After that
person completes the task, they are required to input a string of text
(a server URL) before they can press "Approve." Once this is done, I
want my workflow to assign the next task to another individual, and in
the email notification I want to include the server URL the previous
person entered. The problem is I haven't been able to find the correct
lookup procedure to reference this server URL.
How do I look-up the VM Server URL from the approval screen?
And how do I include that string in the email that gets sent out as the next task?

I think part of the issue is that the TaskID variable is a string like this (4250c824-d81d-4d4a-b440-924901a1da95), but SharePoint only let's me retrieve it as an integer.

Following Amal's advice, instead of referencing the Current Item ID, I tried to reference the ID matching the output task ID (picture added below). I changed the ID to reference the Task ID from the previous assigned task and now when I complete the first task it seems like the workflow is unable to progress to the next task. It seems to break the workflow. Is there something I did wrong?I think part of the issue is that the TaskID variable is a string like this (4250c824-d81d-4d4a-b440-924901a1da95), but SharePoint only let's me retrieve it as an integer.
