View BPMN using the API

[pedalshoe]

Hi,

is there a way to extract the BPMN xml using any API?

Thank you,

You must get a hold on ProcessAssetDesc type of your process (In example: RuntimeDataService.getProcesses()). When you have that, you call ProcessAssetDesc.getEncodedProcessSource(), that return Baste64 encoded String of BPMN xml, so you should decode it.

Snippet:

ProcessAssetDesc process = RuntimeDataService.getProcesses().iterator().next();

byte[] source = Base64.decodeBase64(process.getEncodedProcessSource());

String xml = new String(source, "UTF-8");
