Hi Killian,

With Bonita, the process (back end) are in charge of updating BDM. So, you can update a BDM object only through the process. There is no way to do that through REST Api Extension, unless the REST Api extension use a process.

Cheers

Hi Kilian,

By using a process he may think of creating a dedicated process to push business data in the BDM.

Hi Lio,

Can you explain the solution “unless the REST Api extension use a process.” ?
