I've splited the flow and assigned several tasks to different users. How can I:

  1. stop all the tasks after a certain time?
  2. collect the available responses?

Verify the datetime your flow should ends inside the view

At least once you will have to acess some view in order to verify if the flow has or hasn't ended. There you could implements a piece of the snippet provided in the views.py bellow.

Using the @property tag in your model allows you to perform, among many other things, some validation on the fly and returns it whenever requested as if a model attribute.

Reference: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.0/glossary/#term-property

Example: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.0/topics/db/models/#model-methods

models.py

from django.db import models
from django.utils import timezone

class Flow(models.Model):
    ends = models.DateTimeField

    @property
    def is_active(self):
        return timezone.now() < self.ends

views.py

from django.http import HttpResponse

def interact_with_flow(request, pk)
    if Flow.is_active:
        status = 'Flow Active'
    else:
        status = 'Flow Ended'
    return HttpResponse(request, status)
