@GotnOGuts / @Saumya_Upadhyay , I checked the library but unfortunately StandardLoopCharacteristics.class doesn’t exists even in v7.20

MultiInstanceLoopCharacteristicsImpl (Impl) extends LoopCharacteristicsImpl.java (abstract) implements LoopCharacteristics (Interface).

While modelling it allows to define the loop.

<bpmn:userTask id="Activity_0xvzgi6">
  <bpmn:incoming>Flow_0qs5p62</bpmn:incoming>
  <bpmn:outgoing>Flow_0agmqev</bpmn:outgoing>
  <bpmn:standardLoopCharacteristics />
</bpmn:userTask>

I guess camunda has never implemented this feature or not supported the loop characteristics.

Camunda engine doesn’t support loop markers. You can model it in the Camunda Modeler but the marker is ignored in the engine.

The suggestion was to use XOR gateway to perform the looping. Only multi-instance loop characteristics was supported.
