Hello,

I know that one can install new processes, organizations, and profiles to an instance of Bonita BPM Platform through the Portal, but are there any other ways to do this manually by moving the bar/xml files somewhere in the server files or perhaps even programmatically through API?

Thanks for your help

hey nampham, I see deployAndEnableProcess in the API, but you need to provide it a BusinessArchive object. Is there a way to convert a .bar file to a BusinessArchive object?

I found what I was looking for. You can read in .bar files using the BusinessArchiveFactory’s method readBusinessArchive(file).

Thanks!
