REST API to Start and Complete Process with submit-form embedded

Shohil_Sethia · December 2, 2016, 9:22am

Hello Folks,

I am unable to send POST request even by Rest Client in Mozilla firefox.
Request i am sending is to Sample Web Application ''Invoice".
Article Followed -
Start and Complete a process via REST API
Error-Thrown= “Status Code-500 Internal Server Error”.

Pre-requites:

Already tried CORS filter in conf/web.xml ,It does not seems to be working.
Article listed above is followed completely.
I am not sending any Business Key. (Why i stated this is because in Camunda Docs, There starting the process is shown by sending Business-key also with the Json-Data, While the article is slightly different.)

Query:

does Business key is required to send with the Json data ?? or it works with just sending the form data only ?

Any help will be highly appreciated,

Hello,

I’m not sure I fully understand your need but I can tell you that I start processes with rest post at /process-definition/{key}/start but key is the id you give to the BPMN. Nothing to do with business keys.

You can have a look at that Jersey client which start the process : https://github.com/ecornely/camunda-json/blob/master/src/test/java/be/ecornely/StartProcess.java

Hi @Shohil_Sethia,

Could you please share the entire URL of your request? Could you please share the complete stack trace?

Cheers,
Roman

In the stacktrace I identified the following line :

In the screenshot I see you’re posting invoiceNumber but no invoiceCategory do you have any task in the workflow which should tranform somehow that Number into a Category ?

Hi @Shohil_Sethia,

As @Eric_Cornely said, you have to set also a invoiceCategory. The payload must look like this

{
  "variables": {
    "creditor": {...},
    "amount": {...},
    "invoiceNumber": {...},
    "invoiceCategory": {...}
  }
{

Cheers,
Roman
