输出绑定
Zeebe uses gRPC under the hood for the Zeebe client we use in this binding. Please consult the gRPC API reference for more information: https://stage.docs.zeebe.io/reference/grpc.html
topology
The topology
operation obtains the current topology of the cluster the gateway is part of.
To perform a topology
operation, invoke the Zeebe command binding with a POST
method and the following JSON body:
{

deploy-workflow
The deploy-workflow
operation deploys a single workflow to Zeebe.
To perform a deploy-workflow
operation, invoke the Zeebe command binding with a POST
method and the following JSON body:
{
"data": "YOUR_FILE_CONTENT",
"metadata": {
"fileName": "products-process.bpmn",
"fileType": "bpmn"
},

}
The metadata parameters are:
fileName
- the name of the workflow filefileType
- (optional) the type of the file ‘bpmn’ or ‘file’. If no type was given, the default will be recognized based on the file extension ‘bpmn’ for file extension .bpmn, for all other files it will be set to ‘file’
响应
The binding returns a JSON with the following response:
{
"key": 2251799813687320,
"workflows": [
{
"bpmnProcessId": "products-process",
"version": 3,
"workflowKey": 2251799813685895,
"resourceName": "products-process.bpmn"
}
]
}
The response values are:
key
- the unique key identifying the deploymentworkflows
- a list of deployed workflowsbpmnProcessId
- the bpmn process ID, as parsed during deployment; together with the version forms a unique identifier for a specific workflow definitionversion
- the assigned process versionworkflowKey
- the assigned key, which acts as a unique identifier for this workflowresourceName
- the resource name from which this workflow was parsed
create-instance
The create-instance
operation creates and starts an instance of the specified workflow. The workflow definition to use to create the instance can be specified either using its unique key (as returned by the deploy-workflow
operation), or using the BPMN process ID and a version.
Note that only workflows with none start events can be started through this command.
By BPMN process ID
To perform a create-instance
operation, invoke the Zeebe command binding with a POST
method and the following JSON body:
{
"data": {
"bpmnProcessId": "products-process",
"variables": {
"productId": "some-product-id",

bpmnProcessId
- the BPMN process ID of the workflow definition to instantiateversion
- (optional, default: latest version) the version of the process to instantiatevariables
- (optional) JSON document that will instantiate the variables for the root variable scope of the workflow instance; it must be a JSON object, as variables will be mapped in a key-value fashion. e.g. { “a”: 1, “b”: 2 } will create two variables, named “a” and “b” respectively, with their associated values. [{ “a”: 1, “b”: 2 }] would not be a valid argument, as the root of the JSON document is an array and not an object

elementInstanceKey
- the unique identifier of a particular element; can be the workflow instance key (as obtained during instance creation), or a given element, such as a service task (see elementInstanceKey on the job message)local
- (optional, default:false
) if true, the variables will be merged strictly into the local scope (as indicated by elementInstanceKey); this means the variables is not propagated to upper scopes. for example, let’s say we have two scopes, ‘1’ and ‘2’, with each having effective variables as: 1 =>{ "foo" : 2 }
, and 2 =>{ "bar" : 1 }
. if we send an update request with elementInstanceKey = 2, variables{ "foo" : 5 }
, and local is true, then scope 1 will be unchanged, and scope 2 will now be{ "bar" : 1, "foo" 5 }
. if local was false, however, then scope 1 would be{ "foo": 5 }
, and scope 2 would be{ "bar" : 1 }
