Hello,

I’m using the 6.4.1 version of flowable with spring-boot version 2.4.3.

I want to disable the History completely and for that, I was going through this [documentation](https://flowable.com/open-source/docs/bpmn/ch11-History/) and understood that something like below would be sufficient for the same,

> @Bean  
> public EngineConfigurationConfigurer configurer() {  
> return engineConfiguration → {  
> engineConfiguration.setHistory(HistoryLevel.NONE.getKey());  
> };  
> }

But history is still not disabled and I’m able to see history process instances, variables etc.  
Is there something which I’m missing?

Regards,  
Ashmita Sinha

hi @aashi,

if you are using spring boot, you can use the property  
flowable.history-level=none
