BPMN 2.0 and Workflow Tools

Business Process Model and Notation 2.0 is the result of consensus among Business Process Management (BPM) system vendors. The Object Management Group (OMG) has developed and maintained the BPMN standard since 2004.

BPMN 2.0 lets you add artifacts that describe your workflows and business processes to IDM, for provisioning and other purposes. You can create workflow definitions using a text editor or the ForgeRock Workflow Editor UI. The ForgeRock Workflow Editor UI is an open-source project that is not supported or included in IDM. This visual workflow editor can be set up as a standalone node server or integrated directly with IDM.

Scripts inside BPMN 2.0 XML files have access to the following scripting variables:

openidm
identityServer
console

For example, to log a message with Groovy:

console.log('my message')

The following terms are reserved and cannot be used as variable names: out, out:print, lang:import, context, and elcontext.
