I am new to camunda and want to find out if this could be a solution for us. There is a very nice tool, camunda forms within the Camunda Modeller. I need the function that can fetch selectable data like possible values in a Select-Option element from a database or a webservice. I thought that I can do this with a FEEl expression. But I can’t find a function that is able to call a webservice other something else.
Is it possible to get data from a webservice or something else to fill the possible values of a Select-Options element in Camunda forms?
Thank you very much in advance for help.
Regards, Daniel
You can’t do this within a form itself, but rather in the process that contains the form you can call a webservice first - store the data in the process instance and have it displayed in the form next.
That’s gonna be harder - you may not be able to use a start form in this case. You’ll need to user to maybe click a “Continue to form” button or something before triggering the process
