Hi Team,

i am trying to use mongo db as a data source …  
maven dependency  
  
org.flowable  
flowable-process-engine-mongodb  
6.4.0.alpha1  
  
MonogCredential credential=new MongoCredential.createCredential(user,database,password.tocharArray());  
MongoCllient mongoclient=new MongoClient(new ServerAddress(host,port),credential,MongoClientOptions.builder().ssEnabled(true).build());

ProcessEngine processEngine = new MongoDbProcessEngineConfiguration()  
.setMongoClient(mongoClient)  
.setDisableIdmEngine(true)  
.buildProcessEngine();

I am not able to start process using runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey(“key”);

SSL based authentication is enabled on mongodb.  
please help

Hey @cnaru,

The MongoDB integration is a prototype. For more information have a look at:

- [Mongodb support?](https://forum.flowable.org/t/mongodb-support/4697)
- [Flowable + MongoDB with IDM Engine](https://forum.flowable.org/t/flowable-mongodb-with-idm-engine/8093)
- [Flowable - MongoDB Standalone](https://forum.flowable.org/t/flowable-mongodb-standalone/8063)

Cheers,  
Filip
