Hi everyone,
I’m working with PHP and studying Camunda. I’ve created a simple BPMN, but I’m encountering a problem when starting the process. Two variables are created: one with a global scope and the other with a process scope. I’m passing them in the request "/process-definition/key/$key/start" body like this:
php
[
"variables" => [
"number" => [
"value" => "324341324",
"type" => "String"
]
],
"tenantId" => "laraveltenant",
"businessKey" => "2100d7e1-ac48-4183-93cf-ebfeda0807e3",
"withVariablesInReturn" => true
]
My question is: How can I pass a variable that will only be needed for a single service task?
Additionally, all my service tasks are implemented as listeners in my application. As soon as a task with a specific topic name appears, my application immediately starts execution.
I’m wondering if I’ve structured the architecture correctly, and I would appreciate any advice or suggestions. I’m a bit confused about this setup and could use some help. Thanks in advance!
