Set execution variable via designer (process definition)

[sojk...@gmail.com]

Hallo,

I need to set execution variable via designer in each user task. Please what is the best solution for that? I want to use form properties (I used in Activiti), but Camunda designer for Eclipse has not UI with a form. Can you help me please?

Thank you very much.

Best regards
Jiri Sojka

Hi Jiri Sojka,

As you have noticed we currently do not support form properties in the
camunda Modeler.

What you can do is using an HTML-based form and declare the properties
there. All input fields will be converted into Process Variables:

/embedded-task-forms

Cheers,
Daniel Meyer

Hello,

the best way for me was use

<activiti:field name="name" stringValue="Some value"/>

in ExecutinListener. It is working like Activiti but it is not documented. So it is necessary create changes directly in xml file (designer does not support this).

Working trick is:

${execution.setVariable("var_name", "value123")}

as expression in Listenere desired element or transition.
