how to display Process instance Id on task screen

praveenasurapan

I am trying to find the process instance ID of a task, so that I know, I am editing the correct task assigned to a user group.

We have a task under a process instance that needs to be marked complete. I can't see to connect a task to a process instance Id on the task screen. Is there any easy way to have this displayed on task screen in activiti-explorer?

Please let me know.

Hi,

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to achieve.
On the Activiti Explorer Task page a link to the process is presented. ( http://activiti.org/screenshots.html#images/screenshots/activiti-explorer-tasks.png )
Is that not what you're looking for?

Regards,

Yvo

Thanks for your response

In the screenshot you attached, the part where it says "Part of Process: Vacation Request', is there a way, I can display process instance ID. Please let me know.

Thanks

If you have JAVA classes the simplest thing I can think of is:

In one of your earlier JAVA classes:

public void execute(DelegateExecution exec) {
    ———
    exec.setVariable("procInstId", exec.getProcessInstanceId());
    ———
}

Later, in the user task you can have a non-writeable form field saying Process Instance Id with default value ${procInstId}

Thanks Sankalp. Currently I am just deploying the activiti-explorer.war that came with 5.16.3 download

Can you please let me know where can I download the code base for Activiti-explorer for 5.16.3 version?

Don't know if it has per distribution code snapshots. But, my solution works with just the war. What I suggested needs to be done in a service task.

Thanks Sankalp.

If I understand correct, I have to modify my workflow to include the service task you mentioned. unfortunately I can't change my workflow. Is there something we can do in the activiti-explorer code base for process instance ID to show up on task screen.

The source is open, so you can change it anyway you want and create a new war file yourself.

Didn't you see the big 'Download Zip' button on our source code page on github?
