What is the architecture and which REST calls does the bot make? https://bpm.tips/3563/how-do-i-connect-a-chatbot-watsonx-assistant-to-baw-so-users-can-start-processes-and-complete-tasks-by-chat Sun, 06 Sep 2026 14:01:16 +0000 https://bpm.tips/3529/how-does-message-correlation-work-for-intermediate-message-events-and-ucas-in-baw-matching-the-right-instance An external system sends "order shipped" messages and the right running instance must continue. We have UCAs and intermediate message events but instances do not resume, or all of them resume. How is correlation defined and debugged? https://bpm.tips/3529/how-does-message-correlation-work-for-intermediate-message-events-and-ucas-in-baw-matching-the-right-instance Sun, 06 Sep 2026 13:55:24 +0000 https://bpm.tips/3527/how-do-i-use-java-libraries-jar-files-from-baw-server-scripts-server-files-class-loading-and-what-to-avoid We need a Java library (PDF generation, a client SDK) from a server script. Where do the JAR files go so that Packages.* finds them, how are they versioned with the process app, and what breaks on CP4BA? https://bpm.tips/3527/how-do-i-use-java-libraries-jar-files-from-baw-server-scripts-server-files-class-loading-and-what-to-avoid Sun, 06 Sep 2026 13:55:04 +0000 https://bpm.tips/3523/how-do-i-implement-retries-error-boundaries-and-compensation-for-failing-integrations-in-a-baw-process Our BPD calls several REST and SAP services. When one is down the instance fails and an administrator has to retry manually. What is the recommended way to model retries, fallbacks and compensation so that instances heal themselves? https://bpm.tips/3523/how-do-i-implement-retries-error-boundaries-and-compensation-for-failing-integrations-in-a-baw-process Sun, 06 Sep 2026 13:54:22 +0000 https://bpm.tips/3503/what-is-an-externally-implemented-activity-external-implementation-in-baw-and-how-does-an-external-system-complete-it We want some tasks of a BPD to be worked in another application (a custom portal or a mobile app) instead of a coach. BAW has "External implementation" as an activity type. How does it work end to end and what does the external side have to call? https://bpm.tips/3503/what-is-an-externally-implemented-activity-external-implementation-in-baw-and-how-does-an-external-system-complete-it Sun, 06 Sep 2026 13:50:55 +0000 https://bpm.tips/3499/how-do-case-solutions-and-baw-processes-work-together-case-activity-starting-a-process-sharing-case-properties BAW combines case management (from IBM Case Manager) and process. When should something be a case activity versus a process, and how does a case start a BPD and pass its properties back and forth? https://bpm.tips/3499/how-do-case-solutions-and-baw-processes-work-together-case-activity-starting-a-process-sharing-case-properties Sun, 06 Sep 2026 13:50:14 +0000 https://bpm.tips/3483/how-do-i-use-odm-decision-services-from-baw-decision-service-artifact-vs-rest-call-to-decision-server We have Operational Decision Manager next to BAW. Process Designer has a "decision" artifact and ODM has REST endpoints - which should we use to run a ruleset from a BPD, and how do the business objects map? https://bpm.tips/3483/how-do-i-use-odm-decision-services-from-baw-decision-service-artifact-vs-rest-call-to-decision-server Sun, 06 Sep 2026 13:47:34 +0000 https://bpm.tips/3481/how-do-i-call-a-baw-process-or-service-from-application-designer-a-business-automation-application-on-cp4ba Our UI team builds screens with Application Designer (Business Automation Applications) and wants to start BAW processes and complete tasks from them instead of using coaches. How is that wired? https://bpm.tips/3481/how-do-i-call-a-baw-process-or-service-from-application-designer-a-business-automation-application-on-cp4ba Sun, 06 Sep 2026 13:47:14 +0000 https://bpm.tips/3437/how-do-i-use-the-case-rest-api-of-baw-to-create-cases-add-documents-and-complete-activities-from-external-systems External systems (CRM, a customer portal) need to create cases in our BAW case solution, attach documents and read the case status. Which API is that, how is it authenticated, and what do the calls look like? https://bpm.tips/3437/how-do-i-use-the-case-rest-api-of-baw-to-create-cases-add-documents-and-complete-activities-from-external-systems Sun, 06 Sep 2026 13:39:02 +0000 https://bpm.tips/3435/how-do-i-start-a-baw-process-from-a-kafka-topic-or-publish-process-events-to-kafka Our enterprise integration moved from MQ to Kafka. Can BAW consume Kafka messages to start processes or trigger UCAs, and can it publish events to Kafka without custom code? https://bpm.tips/3435/how-do-i-start-a-baw-process-from-a-kafka-topic-or-publish-process-events-to-kafka Sun, 06 Sep 2026 13:38:43 +0000 https://bpm.tips/3405/can-i-still-use-java-integrations-and-managed-jars-in-baw-on-cp4ba-liberty Our toolkits contain Java integrations (PDF generation, SFTP, custom crypto) as managed server files. Do they still work on the container runtime, and what has to change? https://bpm.tips/3405/can-i-still-use-java-integrations-and-managed-jars-in-baw-on-cp4ba-liberty Sun, 06 Sep 2026 13:32:39 +0000
