Call activity deserialization error

Camunda 7 Topics Discussion & Questions
1

Hi,
In my process I try to map object variable (serialized as JSON) to variable in “call activity”. However, I get deserialization error, which makes sense, since I only have serialized value. Is there any way to deal with that issue, for example force Camunda not to deserialize the object?
When I try it with Java object instead the variable is past, still I can only access serialized value in an embedded form via variableManager.

What is the error message you got? how do you pass variables? How does your serialized value looks?
