Flowable 6.2.1 release

Author: Tijs Rademakers

Today we released a new version of Flowable with the 6.2.1 release.

The 6.2.1 release has the following highlights:

Highlights

  • Lots of additions to the CMMN 1.1 Engine, including timer support, repetition support, DMN and HTTP task support and variable query support.

  • Rest documentation is now also generated based on the Swagger definitions to ensure it’s always in sync with the REST controller code.

  • Improved support of ChangeActivityStateBuilder to move an execution in a process instance to another activity that’s part of the process definition.

  • Enhanced the CMMN Modeler palette with timer event listeners, DMN and HTTP tasks and additional properties like timer expressions and repetition expressions.

  • Improved support of CMMN in the Flowable Task app.

  • Various small bugfixes all around.

Upgrade notes

To harmonize the deployers between the BPMN and CMMN engine the ProcessEngineConfigurator interface has been renamed to EngineConfigurator and moved to the flowable-engine-common module. In addition a new flowable-spring-common module has been added to shared common Spring classes between the BPMN and CMMN spring modules.

BPMN is dead, long live BPMN

Tools like ChatGPT can handle a variety of business tasks, automating nearly everything. And it’s true, GenAI really can do a wide range of tasks that humans do currently. Why not let business users work directly with AI then? And what about Agentic AI?
