Transient Variables Supported?

Camunda 7 Topics Discussion & Questions

Hi team,

I noticed a method in the execution class - setVariableLocalTransient(…) - hence can I infer that transient process variables are now a supported concept?

regards

Rob

Hi Rob,

I’m afraid not. This method is not public API and therefore not tested as if it was. I think this is used for DMN execution where the result of a business rule task is available as a variable but never persisted. However, making this a public API feature might not be too much effort now.

Cheers,
