Hi everyone,
I have a running process that includes a responsive form, but I have to change some fields in the form without stopping the instance. Do you know if it’s possible or not?

Hello @mandy ,
by updating fields, do you mean process variables? Or the form definition itself?

Hi @jonathan.lukas ,
I mean adding a new text field, or deleting an existing one on the form while the process instance continues. Later on, we also want to edit the process model itself to use the new information that came from this field. So there are actually two questions. Can we edit the form design and the process model while the instance continues running?
In our case, we already started the instance so we don’t want to stop or terminate it. I know that this can lead to some logical issues but just wanted to ask if anyone experienced something like this and solved it without stopping the instance.
Hello @mandy ,
this depends a bit on how you implement the form binding:

For Camunda 7, there are some more:
I hope this helps
