Variables in URL

Q&A
1

Hi,

Back in version 6.x, it was possible to set the values of process variables by having them in the process instantiation URL as a simple http query string.

Is it possible to do this in 7.x, and if so, how can it be done?

Thanks.

I think you are referring to the REST API POST /bpm/case, you should have a look at the paragraph Create a case with variables on this documentation page .

For those who find this question. The answer is no, there is no single URL that will allow you to instantiate a process with the contract variables in the query string. As per accepted answer, you will need to use the bpm API to instantiate the process + contract.
