Classes not showing up in Flowable
Hello,
I’ve been trying to develop a workflow following the Collibra university course and am stuck where you are supposed to choose a class in the main config of a task. I’ve installed java/flowable per the instructions but when I search no collibra specific classes show up. Is there a component I’m missing? I switched over to using flowable since that seems newer than activiti and have tried multiple versions of Java.
Also, I tried the ‘Hello World’ walkthrough but the bpmn file won’t upload, is there an easy way to pull logs? I was able to install the CLI client but haven’t been able to find resources on pulling logs.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!!

Boot amps and coaching are great ways to get started with workflows.
In addition to flowable, you also need to load the collibra Java api jar into eclipse:
https://productresources.collibra.com/downloads/2021-07/
Bear in mind that many variables are magically instantiated in Collibra, so you will have to define you own “item”, “users”, etc variables.
Logs: everything happens in the collibra console but bear in mind most logs are useless (stack traces account for 95% of all workflow error management).
I already discussed much of this in previous posts.
Good luck on your journey!

Hi Arthur,
You really like Collibra to check the Datacitizen community during your holidays
Just read yours posts. Seems a really interesting tool !
If you have several Script Task into your workflow diagram, you have only 1 groovy file?
Then your python tool update the diagram XML code by replacing the code inside each node
<scriptTask id='xxx' ...></scriptTask>
How do you identify block of code / script task into your grooy file, you put some XXX tag? Or maybe you have one groovy file per script task, with XXX into the filename?
Are you able to auto deploy a workflow in you Collibra instance from your workstation? We can use the importAPI for that?
Regards,
Alex
