Camunda 8 Topics Discussion & Questions

Hi Team,

I want to get my task details, when execution is waiting at Usertask. Since we dont have Listener in UserTask in camunda 8, please suggest an alternate way to do the same.

I want to get the task details and send in springboot, once it is created .

Thanks!

Hi @Hariharan,

Do you use Camunda 8 SaaS or Self-Managed?

  • You can use a job worker that subscribes to the job type io.camunda.zeebe:usertask
  • In a self-managed setup, you can write a custom exporter

Hi @StephanHaarmann ,
Thanks for the reply. Please help me in understanding the below 2 queries.
client.newWorker().jobType(“io.camunda.zeebe:userTask”).handler(new UserTaskHandler())
1)This workerHandler(UserTaskHandler) will be executed whenever an Usertask is open. It is generic for all UserTasks right.
lets say, I am having 10 UserTasks in my process, mostly all my Usertasks will be open all the time atleast for one processInstance.
In that case, will all the usertasksWorkers(UserTaskHandler) get executed continuously?

2)Will this worker considers olderVersions also or only for latest version of the process? ( I am getting older version of the process also )

Thanks in advance!

  1. Yes, if you do not complete the user task, the lock on the corresponding lock will expire and the JobWorker will be invoked again.
  2. The worker is independent of the process and version. So, it will receive all user tasks.
