Use resultList in Expression to assign user a task

Camunda 7 Topics Discussion & Questions

I have a simple example I am working on and have built a decision table that takes an input of a cost center and outputs to a resultList (called cca) two values of “owner” and “limit”. The output is [{owner=Bob, limit=5000}].

I am trying to use owner to set the assignee. I think it should be an expression like ${cca.owner}, but it is not working. I also tried ${cca[0]} and ${cca[owner]}, but that doesn’t work either.

Any assistance or pointers is appreciated.

Could you please try ${cca.owner.value}

I found the solution through some experimentation. To use each value in the result list I needed to use ${cca[0].owner}. For limit in a comparison I needed to us #{cca[0].limit > amount}.

It took a bit to find that $ is used to read data (e.g. assignee is ‘owner’}, where # is used to write data (e.g. limit > amount = true}.

Hope that helps someone.
