My process:  start –> service task –>user task–>end

We can use DelegateExecution.setVariable("myId","test") in service task. And in user task has input text with id "myId".  The input text will initialized with "test" value.

And my question is how to set a variable in service rask for dropdown?

Thanks a lot.

Hi, for populating the dropdown with a default value you have to do exactly the same you did for a simple text field but you have to set the "id" value to the variable not the label value.

ex: dropdown1 [{"v1", "Value 1"}, {"v2", "Value 2"}])

you have to set: execution.setVariable("dropdown1", "v2") -> and the ui will show "Value 2" as selected.
