Hi.

In Admin app there is available option to show a process diagram in which you can see on which task instance is.

I would like to know if there is a way if there is a way in which I could use that option to include it as a part of a solution?

For example, to put a button on some screen on UI and when a user clicks on it to show a process diagram for that instance (to show a picture below).

Kind regars,  
V.

Hi Vkras,  
There is a REST API that can be used to retrieve the process diagram  
[Flowable Process Swagger Documentation](https://documentation.flowable.com/latest/assets/core-swagger/bpmn.html#/Process%20Instances/getProcessInstanceDiagram)

e.g. [http://localhost:8090/process-api/runtime/process-instances/PRC-0d912edb-8162-11ed-bdb0-085bd6c6eafc/diagram](http://localhost:8090/process-api/runtime/process-instances/PRC-0d912edb-8162-11ed-bdb0-085bd6c6eafc/diagram)

returns:

Hope this helps.
