Does camunda support transient variables

Camunda 7 Topics Discussion & Questions

I am looking for camunda variables which are not persisted in database.

Activity supports following
[http://www.jorambarrez.be/blog/2016/09/01/how-to-use-transient-variables-in-activiti/]

execution.setTransientVariable(“response”, “value”);

Looking for something similar in Camunda. I don’t see any method related to this.

There is currently no such feature. See https://app.camunda.com/jira/browse/CAM-8086 for the corresponding feature request.

Cheers,

Hi,
you can kinda fake it by removing the process variable before its flushed to the DB. End task listeners can be useful for this kind of housekeeping…
