Hello,
we are using the community edition of Camunda and I am trying to build a workflow with external Task forms. Let me explain the scenario:
In our intranet we have our own tasklist. So we need to feed this tasklist with the user tasks from our Camunda engine.
Therefor I want to use the REST API: http://camunda-server.mycompany.org:8080/engine-rest/task?candidateUser=myUserName
The result JSON contains the formKey parameter. For example:
“formkey”: “http://another-server.mycompany.org:8080/enterDMSData”
The GUI will be an Angular application, so I need to forward the taskID and the processID.
The formKey should finally have the following value:
“formKey” : “http://another-server.mycompany.org:8080/enterDMSData?processID=MyStep&taskID=d6e4db95-2ce8-11ec-aa4c-14abc57849c9”
In the Camunda Modeler I selected the user task and opened the “Forms” tab. I chose Type=“Embedded or External Task Forms” and in Form Key I entered “http://another-server.mycompany.org:8080/enterDMSData”.
I hope / think, that when I add “Form Fields” on the “Forms” tab, I can “append” the required values to the formKey URL.
What steps are necessary to get the required parameters to the formKey entry?
Best regards,
Rainer
