Q&A

Hello,

I have an instantiation form which is used by many different processes.

On the form, I need to know which process is concerned.

Since there's no context for an instantiation form, I don't how to do that.

Has someone any idea ?

Regards,

Thierry.

Hi,

You can use the id parameter of a process instantiation form url that correspond to the processDefinitionId.

  • Add a variable in your form of type URL Parameter with name processDefinitionId and URL parameter name to id.
  • Add another variable processDefinition of type External API with the following API call:
    ../API/bpm/process/{{processDefinitionId}}

You can then use {{processDefinition.displayName}} to retrieve the name of the current process.
