Hello everybody,

I would like to know the value that we have to assign to the property “deployment.api.url” in flowable-ui-app.properties, to use flowable REST instead of flowable task REST API for app publishing in flowable modeler.

Best regards,

Jordy.

By default it’s this:

`deployment.api.url=http://localhost:8080/flowable-task/process-api`

So basically, it needs to have the server + context (flowable-task is the name of the war, process-api the name of the dispatcher servlet mapping). The deployment endpoint will be added automatically.

Thank you for your answer joram. I tried to replace /flowable-task/process-api by flowable-rest/service but I always have this error :  
" Invalid deploy result code: HTTP/1.1 401 unauthorised" when I try to publish an app in flowable-modeler UI.

I think that the problem comes from the username and password used for publish request. The username “kermit” and the password “kermit” would be better, do you know how can I change the default username and the default password?

You can change the user/password that is used to do the deployment with the following properties;

```
idm.admin.user
idm.admin.password
```
