How to get the process definition diagram and process instance diagram via JAVA API?

Hi @GhostFox,

Please see the post linked below. Although it talks about the rest API for getting the diagram, the explanations apply to the Java API you mention as well.

Rest get-diagram

Hi Camunda world. I wonder how the get diagram call from the rest api works. I have a few process definitions deployed but all of them have the diagram field set to null. Am I supposed to include some kind of file in the deployment? Cheers, Gonzalo

In general, we recommend retrieving the XML and rendering it with bpmn.io since it is much more powerful.

Cheers,
