Adding new or update existing variables on finished process instances

Camunda 7 Topics Discussion & Questions

Hello there,

is it possible to add new or update existing variables on finished process instance? I’m using Spring Boot and Camunda and I can see that HistoryService does not have methods to add variables.

I want to do that outside of process engine, not executing code in JavaDelegate.

This isn’t really possible.
What reason do you have for needing to do this? Maybe there’s a work around.

It’s a business request. The client wants to add some additional data wheater or not the process is finished. But that data must be connected with specific process instance.
