Modeler forms / file

BPMN & Modeling Discussion & Questions

The Modeler forms editor is a great addition to Camunda. It would be great to have File upload added to it. Any plans for that? Thanks

You can include the Form file in your BPMN or DMN deployment.
Wouldn’t a change to your form also change your BPMN?

Hi @cr.irvine,

this is already implemented, but not released: Be Able to Deploy Forms Stand-Alone · Issue #2498 · camunda/camunda-modeler · GitHub

I hope that the feature is included in the next version.

Hope this helps, Ingo

I probably wasn’t very clear in my original post. Using Camunda Angular forms, I can specify a file upload field. The user can then click on it and upload a file which gets stored in the Camunda database. I can use the same field in read-only mode, that allows users to download the file in subsequent user tasks. I’ve used this feature quite a bit.

It would be great if this feature could be added to forms created with the newly updated form builder.

Hi @cr.irvine,

you can add your requests on forms directly in the form-js github project. Issues · bpmn-io/form-js · GitHub.

That is the best way to get feedback from the developers.

Cheers, Ingo

Hi @Ingo_Richtsmeier I kind of think you and I were talking about two different thing - not totally sure. Anyway, I did submit an issue to that project. See https://github.com/bpmn-io/form-js/issues/222.

Thanks, Charles
