cmis connector session

Q&A
1

Hi Devs,

I am using bonita 7.0.1, as I can see that the cmis available connectors are killing the session within one task, can’t be carried out to next adjacent task. Is there any way that I can edit the implementation, or any smart ways to get the sessions out of the task?

Thankyou,
Vivek

Hi Vivek,

Sorry but I do not understand what you imply by:

cmis available connectors are killing the session within one task

Could you please clarify?

Cheers,

Hi Philippe,

The requirement is, I don’t have to download the document from alfresco, using the cmis download connector, instead I have to read the content id, and content name, as well as I have to store the authentication ticket, inorder to access it in later Htasks, or STasks. Is it possible?

Thank you,

Vivek

Hi Vivek,

All of the out of the box Bonita connectors are stateless.
Custom ones should also be stateless as a best practice (due to engine architecture).

However, please note that you can still chain connectors and have more than one on a given task and event (task start or end).
Do remember to use task variables (and not process variables) to store temporary information between these connectors.
This should allow you to cover your use case.

Cheers,
