Hey @prashant,

I would suggest reading [Building your own Flowable Spring Boot application](https://blog.flowable.org/2018/12/19/building-your-own-flowable-spring-boot-application/) blog post and checking out our [spring-boot](https://github.com/flowable/flowable-examples/tree/master/spring-boot-example) example.

The reason why you are not seeing the REST APIs is because you do not have the needed dependencies on the classpath.

You need:

```auto
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.flowable</groupId>
    <artifactId>flowable-spring-boot-starter-process-rest</artifactId>
    <version>6.5.0</version>
</dependency>

```

in order to have the rest APIs for the process engine available
