How to set user that starts a worklow ?

jcharnet

Hello. What should I do to set the user that is starting a workflow process ?
I want to be able to see my started process through "My Instances" view in Activiti Explorer. I've noticed that Activiti Explorer fetches data from ACT_HI_PROCINST where the column START_USER_ID_ matches the logged in user.
I'm starting my process outside Activiti Explorer, and this columns (START_USER_ID_) is not being populated.
Any idea on how to achieve this ?

Thanks,

John

Hi,

It's explained in the userguide with the start event:

try {<br>&nbsp; identityService.setAuthenticatedUserId("bono");<br>&nbsp; runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey("someProcessKey");<br>} finally {<br>&nbsp; identityService.setAuthenticatedUserId(null);<br>}

Best regards,

Perfect, sorry I missed that in the userguide.

Thanks
