Automate with Jenkins

Flowable Engine
1

Hello everyone,
in an attempt to automate the depoly process from a development environment to a production environment through Jenkins, I am experiencing problems in exporting the zip as I currently do manually by the flowable-modeler.

The modeler for export calls “/flowable-modeler/app/rest/app-definitions/{modelId}/export?Version=${versionId}”
I tried calling the same API, and I tried calling “/flowable-task/rest/app-definitions/{modelId}/export” to get the zip of the latest version.
But the answer doesn’t return any zip, and it’s the following:

Hey @digenn,

The API you are using is not a public API which is meant to be consumed in the way you are consuming it. That endpoint is CSRF protected and required authentication via the Flowable IDM application. There is no API which has the functionality you need.

You can provide a PR that would expose this in the Flowable Modeler REST API.

Cheers,
Filip
