Finding out process instance details in jbpm 5.4

[ayusman_dikshit]

Hi,

given a process instance id; is it possible to find the history details of the process instance?

Say my process instance has 3 activities, A, B, and C. And say A and B has been completed and C is waiting for action.

I know in jbpm 4.4 there were history service that could help me find more details. Is there anything equivalent in JBPM 5.4?

I read in one of the JBPM documentation (section 5.1.2 Session)

It is recommended not to use this

     * method to collect information about the state of your process instances but to use

     * a history log for that purpose.

Is there an example somewhere? Or a set of instructions/tutorials?

It would help a lot of readers to have an article from experts in this forum.

Thanks

you should rely on history log mechanism included in jbpm 5.4, see docs here Then you can use JPAProcessInstanceDbLog to read the information from history log.
