Send Business Key with Signal Event

Hi There

Can someone please advise on how to send a BusinessKey using a Signal event. I dont want the BusinessKey to show up in my list of Variables, I need it populated in the Process that was triggered by the signal. I would like to be able to view it in the dashboard view to easily extinguish between the processes that are there.

Thank you

To pass businessKey either to new process created with Signal Start Event or to existing process possessing the key in question you either need to use XML view of your BPMN with instructions from Camunda BPMN manual:

<signalEventDefinition signalRef="newCustomerSignal">
    <extensionElements>
          <camunda:in businessKey="${execution.processBusinessKey}" />
    </extensionElements>
</signalEventDefinition>
