This is really baffling, we have a situation in an HR process where we have only a single token at the “Conduct CEO Interview” User Task, but after that task is completed we all of the sudden have 2 tokens and we are not sure why.
I understand a Parallel Gateway will cause multiple tokens, but I did not know an exclusive could create multiple tokens.
The Script Task in between the Gateway and Next User Task where the 2 tokens show up are only HTTP Connector Tasks to update the database.
Does anyone have any ideas why we are getting 2 tokens?
Thanks

Can you upload the mode itself so i can take a look at technical details?
Here is the flow minus the API calls for security reasons.

Does the error also occur in this model?

Did you already check if maybe have 2 outgoing flows from one to another activity?
If you have, then Camunda will create a token for each flow, even if the source- and target activity of these flows are the same, this results into 2 tokens at the target activity.
