Activiti Report: Pass parameter to bpm20.xml

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

I know that Report will not be implemented in 6 later but I'd like to ask about this feature more at the moment.

Is there a way that we can pass a parameter from Java to a bpm20.xml file used for reporting? Similar to passing a parameter to a function/class?

Thanks.

Hi Chris,

Do you mean passing a value to a BPM from java ?
If so, yes you can do that. While starting the BPM, you can set the values to various input parameters of BPM and start it.
Example below.
  Map<String, Object> variables = new HashMap<String, Object>();
  variables.put("projectName", "IPEMS");
  variables.put("projectLocation", "Hyderabad");
 
  runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey(bpmName, variables);
