There are two Web APIs in Questetra BPM Suite: the System Settings API, in which you can configure User registration information and system privileges, and the Workflow API, in which you can operate Cases and Tasks. In this article I will show you how to download a list of Cases (instances) and Tasks via the Workflow API using the reportId function. By using the Workflow API you can create scripts that automatically download Case\/Task data on a regular basis.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

The following tasks are to be performed with an account that has Data Viewer Authorization for the target Workflow App. You can check whether your account has the Data Viewer privilege at [Account Settings] > [Authorization].<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

To Download Case Data<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Questetra BPM Suite has a Case search function in its Web UI. For example, you can search by specifying the App and selecting the Data Items to be displayed, as shown in the image below.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

To proceed to the next tutorial Download Case Files Using the Workflow API<\/a>, an App with a File-type Data Item is required. If you do not have an app with file-type data yet, make one and start some Cases with files attached.<\/p>\n

In this article, we will use the Simple Request App from the tutorial Creating a Travel Request App<\/a>, after adding a File-type Data Item to it.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

These search results can be obtained via the Workflow API. When downloaded, for example, in CSV (UTF-8) format, the following search results are returned from the API.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
