Start the process from database

[dsp]

Hi guys,

I need integrate my application with another web app, that already uses Activiti.

But this integration is available only through database access. Is there a way to start the process designed with Activiti, only inserting some data on its tables?

I tried to insert on ACT_RU_EXECUTION table but nothing happens. Not even history (ACT_HI_PROCINST) is generated.

Thanks!

Hi,

I think it is possible (You have to set DB state as it is after runtimeService.startProcess… API call)

I personally do not think it is the best way of integration.
Could you describe the use case?
