Send Message via Rest API Bonita 7.10.3 - Community

Q&A

Hi, 

I need to send a message via rest api to a specific instance of a process. I create a CatchMessage called abortPayment with a correlation called processInstanceIdKey  (groovy with  "processInstanceId"). Via rest api I do the next request:

  • Header
    Content-Type : application/json
  • URL
    /http://localhost:8080/bonita/API/bpm/message
  • Method
    POST
  • Request Payload
     {
     "messageName" : "catchMessage123" ,
     "targetProcess": "EnviaMensagem",
     "messageContent" : {
             "abortPayment" : {
             "value" : "abortPayment"
             }
      },
      "correlations" : {
             "processInstanceIdKey" : {
                "value" : 8006,
                "type" : "java.lang.Long"
              }
      }
    }

It returns Status 204 Content, although nothing is change in instance. Can someone help me? Diagram

Thanks,

Diana

Hi,
The payload should be something more like this:

 {
     "messageName" : "abortPayment" ,
     "targetProcess": "EnviaMensagem",
     "messageContent" : {},
      "correlations" : {
             "processInstanceIdKey" : {
                "value" : 8006,
                "type" : "java.lang.Long"
              }
      }
    }

messageContent is additional data delivered with the message, in your use case you are not using message content (see message content property tab)
