Querying to find currently waiting receive tasks

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.

Hi guys,

I've taken this example from the activiti site:

<receiveTask id="waitState" name="wait" />  ‍

 

To continue a process instance that is currently waiting at such a receive task, the runtimeService.signal(executionId) must be called using the id of the execution that arrived in the receive task. The following code snippet shows how this works in practice:

ProcessInstance pi = runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey("receiveTask");
Execution execution = runtimeService.createExecutionQuery()
  .processInstanceId(pi.getId())
  .activityId("wait")
  .singleResult();
assertNotNull(execution);‍‍‍‍‍‍

Question
If you don't have access to the activity Id is there anyway to find tasks that are in suspended state? All I have access to is the processInstanceId. Using this I need to signal to the waiting task to continue.

Hi,

You can use the getActiveActivityIds of the RuntimeService to get all active activity ids of a specific process instance.

Best regards,
