Create Custom BpmnModelElementInstance

Camunda 7 Topics Discussion & Questions
1

Hi Experts,

I’m planning to add custom elements to capture addition data in User Task definition.

ex:    
<customNameSpace:taskConfiguration>
   <customNameSpace:notificationConfiguration isEnabled="true">
     <customNameSpace:onAssign>>AssignMustacheTemplate.tmpl</customNameSpace:onAssign>
   </customNameSpace:notificationConfiguration>
 </customNameSpace:taskConfiguration>

So I want to create TaskConfiguration & NotificationConfiguration as BpmnModelElementInstance Elements and register these elements with Camunda engine. So that at runtime I can extract this information using execution.getBpmnModelElementInstance().getChildElementsByType(TaskConfiguration.class).

So any pointer to an example will be a great help.

Thanks,
Suhas.

Hi Suhas,
You can add custom extension elements to the model but you need to access them as element extensions. For more information see:
