Request Body

A JSON object with the following properties:

Name Description

activityInstanceId Filter by activity instance id.

processInstanceId Filter by process instance id.

processDefinitionId Filter by process definition id.

executionId Filter by the id of the execution that executed the activity instance.

activityId Filter by the activity id (according to BPMN 2.0 XML).

activityName Filter by the activity name (according to BPMN 2.0 XML).

tenantIdIn Filter by a list of tenant ids. An activity instance must have one of the given tenant ids. Must be a JSON array of Strings.

sorting

A JSON array of criteria to sort the result by. Each element of the array is a JSON object that specifies one ordering. The position in the array identifies the rank of an ordering, i.e., whether it is primary, secondary, etc. The ordering objects have the following properties:

Name	Description
sortBy	Mandatory. Sort the results lexicographically by a given criterion. Valid values are `activityInstanceId`, `instanceId`, `executionId`, `activityId`, `activityName`, `activityType`, `startTime`, `endTime`, `duration`, `definitionId`, `occurrence` and `tenantId`.
sortOrder	Mandatory. Sort the results in a given order. Values may be `asc` for ascending order or `desc` for descending order.

* For further information, please see the documentation.
