Camunda: Custom Variable History Level

This example demonstrates how to register a custom history level by implementing a process engine plugin.

This examples adds one history level:

The bpm-per-variable history level behaves like the normal full history except that only variables which are not blacklisted in the variablesWithoutHistory property are saved to history. This way you can meet data protection requirements.

Adapted from https://github.com/camunda/camunda-bpm-examples/tree/master/process-engine-plugin/custom-history-level

Activate the Custom History Level Engine Plugin

The custom history level engine plugin can be activated in the camunda.cfg.xml:

<!-- activate bpmn parse listener as process engine plugin -->
<property name="processEnginePlugins">
  <list>
    <bean class="de.cryxy.bpm.camunda.plugin.history.BpmCustomHistoryLevelProcessEnginePlugin" />
  </list>
</property>

Configure Custom History Level

To enable the custom history configure it also in the camunda.cfg.xml:

<property name="history" value="bpm-per-variable" />

Create a process

<bpmn2:extensionElements>
  <camunda:properties>
    <camunda:property name="variablesWithoutHistory" value="action-id,camunda" />
  </camunda:properties>
</bpmn2:extensionElements>

Configure Custom History Level per variable and process

The variables "action-id" and "camunda" are not saved to history.
