External Task Client and userPriority

pipeline · February 17, 2019, 11:08am

Hi,
I’m so happy with how External Task Client works, but i miss to configure the _ usePriority_ option when fetch and lock external tasks.
Maybe I didn’t find where to configure it. is there any option?
I would like to configure this param, because there are some tasks with more priority than other. I guess is not difficult to add to this library.

Thanks!

You can add the priority in design time

Thanks for your answer, but looking at the External Task Client for java, I don’t see how it takes in count priority:

If I put a priority, but I don’t mark as true on the api rest call, I think it will not have any effect the value that I put on the design, it’s right?

Thanks!

That is correct, you can do via a property if your using the camunda external task client spring lib.

camunda:
bpmn:
client:
usePriority: false
