Hi, I have a workflow which contains a Message Intermediate Catch Event followed by a Java Service Task.How can I extract the message payload from the Message Intermediate Catch Event from inside the Java Service Task?

How is the message passed? If the payload is a map, all the content is persisted as variables and you can access those in the service task:

  if (payload instanceof Map) {
     @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
      Map<String, Object> processVariables = (Map<String, Object>) payload;
      execution.setVariables(processVariables);
    }

(from the AbstractEventHandler class)
