Hi, using flowable we can get history of the process once it is completed or in interrupted or waiting state. But, how can we get event history of a process which is currently in execution phase??

The history data is always in sync with the runtime data.

The only exception is when you have a process with all automatic steps - in that case there’s only one database transaction and the history data will be available when the process ends and the database transaction commits.
