Hey @shreyashi_gupta!
Welcome to the Camunda Community!
Apparently embedded forms are not supported in Camunda Platform 8 (when relying on Tasklist).
Either you need to implement an own frontend using Tasklist APIs or you need to rely on the forms tooling provided by Camunda.
And you should not store HTML for these purposes inside of a process instance. That’s rather considered as a bad practice.
Hopefully this was helpful for you!
Best,
Thomas
OK, so I am very new to. Camunda, but not new to process orchestration. For every task requiring human input (e.g. personal details) do I need to build my own UI (web/mobile) to integrate to camunda process? There is no web form builder tool?
Hi @GreenHornet,
there is a form builder tool part of Camunda Modeler (Desktop and Web):
This thread is about integrating arbitrary HTML forms into Camunda - which is possible in Camunda 7 but not in Camunda 8. Camunda 8’s tasklist can only use forms created with Camunda Modeler.
Hi @GreenHornet,
It is best practice to use the BPM engine as headless, i.e., no user task implementation. The primary purpose of the BPM engine is process orchestration, system integration, assigning user tasks to the correct groups, escalation etc. The process engine should not be used to render a user task, instead it should be implemented outside BPM. This also mean less computation inside the Zeebe engine
