        config?: Camunda8ClientConfiguration;

activateJobs

• activateJobs<VariablesDto, CustomHeadersDto>(request): Promise<(RestJob<VariablesDto, CustomHeadersDto> & JobCompletionInterfaceRest<IProcessVariables>)[]>

• Iterate through all known partitions and activate jobs up to the requested maximum.

  The parameter inputVariablesDto is a Dto to decode the job payload. The customHeadersDto parameter is a Dto to decode the custom headers. Pass in a Dto class that extends LosslessDto to provide both type information in your code, and safe interoperability with applications that use the int64 type in variables.

  Type Parameters

  • VariablesDto extends LosslessDto
  • CustomHeadersDto extends LosslessDto

  Parameters

  • request: ActivateJobsRequest & {
        customHeadersDto?: Ctor<CustomHeadersDto>;
        inputVariableDto?: Ctor<VariablesDto>;
    }

  Returns Promise<(RestJob<VariablesDto, CustomHeadersDto> & JobCompletionInterfaceRest<IProcessVariables>)[]>

assignTask

• assignTask(__namedParameters): Promise<unknown>

• Assign a user task with the given key to the given assignee.

  Documentation: https://docs.camunda.io/docs/apis-tools/camunda-api-rest/specifications/assign-user-task/

        assignee: string;
        userTaskKey: string;
    }

    • action: string

      A custom action value that will be accessible from user task events resulting from this endpoint invocation. If not provided, it will default to "assign".

    • Optional allowOverride?: boolean

      By default, the task is reassigned if it was already assigned. Set this to false to return an error in such cases. The task must then first be unassigned to be assigned again. Use this when you have users picking from group task queues to prevent race conditions.
