Hi all,

Dealing with the activiti engine, we are facing the problem of how to add new users/tasks/groups to activiti´s db considering that the engine is already running in remote. It´s known that the rest api treats some db manage issues but not this one. We were thinking to extend the rest api in order to support the related tasks…

It would be great if u could recommend us the common way to do it.

Thanks in advance,

Eneko Fernández.

that feature doesn't have priority since most of the times in real deployments, people will use their own existing user store.  and then the external system is used for managing identity data.  so for the moment, we don't have UI for managing identity data. 

we do want that to be possible with the Activity Probe app at some point.  but it should only be expected somewhere next year.  until then there is only direct DB access to manage the identity data in the activity build-in identity component.
