I have deployed camunda locally using camunda docker image. Is there a way to create custom forms when you have deployed using the docker image like the custom form created here?
In short a workaround where we can add file upload form input to community version of camunda will also do.
You can build a model and associated embedded forms. The key thing is that you need to deployment via the rest api together, meaning that the same deployment REST call must contain all files.
It’s important to have the form key for the user task is properly configured.
if you’re deploying a file called filename.html with your model the task’s form key should start with embedded:deployment:filename.html
Thanks! This is a good way to do that but not for non-developers. Considering the latest version of camunda modeler allows to deploy using the modeler itself would it be possible to create the form through the modeler itself? Something like
That would work as well, although the downside is that the forum fields are quite basic but certainly usable.
The good news is that starting from Camunda’s next release 7.15 in 2 weeks we’ll have an embedded form builder. Eventually this will lead to a user being able to create and deploy more complex forms from the modeler.
Absolutely!
I should temper expectations a bit, the first iteration will be quite basic, but you can assured that we’ll be building on it and it’s going to be a big part of the next few releases.
