How do I retrieve information of a previous case/instance ?

Q&A
1

In my process, I store information in Bonita database in order to create reports, etc...

However, I would be interested in retrieving information of a previous case and use it in a new case. Is this possible ? and if yes, how ?

There is an interesting example on a howto available on Community Howto: the Trello application example.

At the beginning, the process test if there is a previous case, and if this the case, it retrieves the latest Trello API credentials provided by the user. Then it displays the information, and let the user choose between using the same credentials, or use new ones.
