Hello Ckuettner,

Thanks for your message but I’m sorry that I don’t quite understand what you are looking for. Would you mind tell me more details about your question?

Best regards,

Hello Rain,

here the details. The code is a part to generate the name, type and documentation in a tableblock for the tasks in a BPMN Diagram. And now we need an additional row with the ID of the task. How is the XML syntax for it? I attempt some XML value options: bptaskID, ID, modelID, … No one was correct.

Hi ckuettner,

I guess that you are looking for property “bpmnId”. Please try and see if it is what you are looking for.

Best regards,

Hi ckuettner,

You are welcome! Just a tips for you - To know the name of a property, you can try the following:

  1. Right click on the target shape (e.g. Task in this case)
  2. Select Copy > Copy as XML from the popup menu.
  3. Paste to a text editor
  4. Search for the property name

This is not a perfect solution but does works. Hope you find it useful.

Best regards,
Jick
