Hi,
Any process you create using the Activiti Exporer will end up being written in the Activiti database.
The REST services will offer you the possibility to interact with the Activiti backend without activiti explorer application (which is just a client application)

So, all the processes you create using Activiti explorer will be visible to the REST services.

How to use the REST services? just download the sources (as you know it's open source) and you'll see a lot of tests covering so many scenarios. (downloading sources and investigating the code will help you a lot)

Hi there,

not sure of the original question has been answered. If yes, please could you tell how to login to rest web console. I always get 404 when try to login with kermit/kermit or any other default users.

Thanks in advance.
