How to define variables across process instances?

[swamy2156]

I have a workflow and there are 10 constant variables out of them few are large strings. If I send them as process variables those will be created at process instance scope and duplicated in variable table N times for N active process instances. Instead of that, is there a way to define those constants at process definition level which will be used for all process instances created for that definition?

I really appreciate any help in this regard.


Thanks,

No, we currently don't have that feature yet. Then again, if it's a global variable why not simply storing it in Java?
What are you using the variable for?
