Camunda cockpit - search for processes using a variable value

Camunda 7 Topics

Hi,
In the existing camunda processes I have variable names that contain hyphen.

When I try to search for camunda processes in the cockpit screen with the variable name and value then I do not get any results even if it exists.

I tried using backtick like this some-variable-name for the variable name and I still do not get search results.

Is there any technique I can use, so that I can get the search results correctly when searching for variables that has hyphen in its name? Or is there a way to search with wildcards for variable names that match a pattern?

Hi @firstpostcommenter
The quickest workaround I see is to use the REST API and variableNameLike there.

Hi All,
I thought that the problem was only with the hyphen character but even variables that are in snake_case are not working in the cockpit search screen.

But snake_case can be used as variable names as per Camunda docs. So it is strange that even this does not work for search functionality in the cockpit screen.
