loop

Best way to manage a polling/looping process?

Hi all,

I have a process that polls a mailbox every 15 minutes looking for new emails to use to instantiate another process.

At the moment I have it run on a start timer event, on a 15 minute cycle.

But this seems inefficient because it creates a new instance every 15 minutes, which generates (useless) data in the form of the process instance history. It also means when I start Bonita Studio on my laptop, all the 15-minute intervals that it missed while off, fire all at once, putting load on the mail server.

Which leads me to a question:

Loop on Task - how to provide the condition?

Hi,

I just want to test to loop a task. But: it doesn't matter what I write into "loop while" the tasks does not loop. Even something like "1==1" is ignored. Can someone provide a example? I'm usind Bonita Community Studio 7.7

Problem with submit button accesin to bonita forms by url

Hi,

I have a problem submitting the forms accesing it by url. I am using bonita bundle v6.2.2 and, when I start a new instance of the process all goes ok, but when I try to submit a task, bonita tells me:

The information has been submitted. A task is now available /- link to the next task -/

but the link to the next task is exactly the same task I have submitted.
