Hi everyone,
Let’s say i have a process “review invoice” with the following “steps”/tasks: START, ASSIGN REVIEWER, REVIEW INVOICE and FINISH.
I would like to present the user a list of all these “steps”/tasks so that he can understand ho many steps the process has. Is this possible with the rest api?
Many thanks!
You could get the BPMN Model XML via the REST API an then you could render it in bpmn.io or you could parse it to get the remaining tasks.
Hi there @Mjgsa,
short answer: yes.
But as I can see from your Profile, you are new to this forum and probably to Camunda. So I want you to talk through some Steps you would need to test this and give some additional information. As a setup on your local machine you need the following:
Since Camunda 7.13 OpenAPI is supported, which is documented here and also use it to import it into Postman. As an alternative you can use curl to do the REST-Call.
Unpack the Camunda community edition and run the application. Unpack the Modeler and start it.
Within the Modeler create a simple diagramm like this
Alternatively you can use curl to deploy your Diagramm:
curl -X POST -F deployment-name=test -F deployment-source=curl -F data=@example.bpmn -F diagram=@example.png http://127.0.0.1:8080/engine-rest/deployment/create
Thereafter you can get your diagramm as follows:
Or with curl with the following command:
curl http://127.0.0.1:8080/engine-rest/process-definition/key/example/diagram > test.png
Make sure you did put the id in your bpmn model when creating the bpmn in the modeler.
Have Fun 
Thanks Niall.
Many thanks for the detailed answer, cnfg!
