Do you want to start a process or have your website represent a user task.

I mean yeah, a localhost website as a represent a user task, is that possible? please answer me, please help me
Hi @fianriyadi
Generally there are two ways of doing this and it depends a lot on how you intend your frontend to work.
The first thing thing that might work is the have your front end expose some kind of API in your front end that can be triggered by your process - then you’re service task would simply send the information need to the front end.
The other probably more common method would be to change that task to a user task and have your front-end call the engine looking to see if a specific task is available using this API call.
https://docs.camunda.org/manual/latest/reference/rest/task/get-query/
the front end can get the context of the process and show the user in the front end. You would then send a message back to the engine to complete the task.
