Plans of Future Changes

We are planning to alter the following specifications and system platform in the future versions.

Version to be scheduled

  • In APIs of “Querying for all Process Instances records” and “Querying for Task records operated by the User”, it will be changed to explicitly designate as display items to include process data items as search results
    • Currently, Process Data Items specified as search criteria are automatically included in search results
    • After the specification change, only the Process Data Items which <view /> element is specified will be included in the search results
  • For “Message Start Event (HTTP / Form)” “Catching Message Itermediate Event (HTTP)”, we will abolish the following form of URL which includes processModelInfoId / nodeNumber / key in the request parameter (Due to Fall of 2018)
    • Deprecated format
      • /System/Event/MessageStart/start?processModelInfoId=123&nodeNumber=0
      • /System/Event/IntermediateMessage/receive?processModelInfoId=123&nodeNumber=4
      • /System/Event/MessageStartForm/view?processModelInfoId=123&nodeNumber=1&key=XXXYYYZZZ
    • New recommended format（Ver. 11.4 or later）
      • /System/Event/MessageStart/start/123/0/start
      • /System/Event/IntermediateMessage/123/4/receive
      • /System/Event/MessageStartForm/123/1/XXXYYYZZZ/view
  • For “Throwing Message Intermediate Event (HTTP)”, the variable ${var[key]} is now deprecated (due to be abolished in autumn of 2018)
    • The key can now be freely set for the calling [Message Start/ Catching Message Intermediate Event (HTTP)]. Consider security etc., please set appropriate key.
    • When sending the key parameter, do not use ${var[key]} and specify a fixed value set for each event
    • A warning will display on Apps in which “$ {var [key]}”is used. Even though it will work with the current setting until it is discontinued, when you upgrade the application, you need to change it so as not to use “$ {var [key]}”
  • In the “Script task” and “Service task (Add-on)”, we will abolish data retrieving / updating method of the following format. (due to be abolished in autumn of 2018)
