    Reference to the activity in which this process instance ended. Note that a process instance can have multiple end events, in this case it might not be deterministic which activity id will be referenced here. Use a HistoricActivityInstanceQuery instead to query for end events of the process instance (use the activityTYpe attribute)
  - getStartUserId

```
String getDeleteReason()
```
    Obtains the reason for the process instance's deletion.
  - getSuperProcessInstanceId
```
String getSuperProcessInstanceId()
