Terminate Case Execution

Performs a transition from ACTIVE state to TERMINATED state if the execution belongs to a task or a stage and performs a transition from AVAILABLE state to TERMINATED state if the execution belongs to a milestone. In relation to the state transition, it is possible to update or delete case instance variables (please note: deletion precedes update).

Method

POST /case-execution/{id}/terminate

Parameters

Path Parameters

Name	Description
id	The id of the case execution to terminate.

Request Body

A JSON object with the following properties:

Name Description

variables

A JSON object containing variable key-value pairs. Each key is a variable name and each value a JSON variable value object.

Name	Description
value	The variable's value. For variables of type `Object`, the serialized value has to be submitted as a String value. For variables of type `File` the value has to be submitted as Base64 encoded string.
type	The value type of the variable.
valueInfo	A JSON object containing additional, value-type-dependent properties. For serialized variables of type `Object`, the following properties can be provided: `objectTypeName`: A string representation of the object's type name. `serializationDataFormat`: The serialization format used to store the variable. For serialized variables of type `File`, the following properties can be provided: `filename`: The name of the file. This is not the variable name but the name that will be used when downloading the file again. `mimetype`: The MIME type of the file that is being uploaded. `encoding`: The encoding of the file that is being uploaded.
local	Indicates whether the variable must be created and/or update locally or not. If set to `true`, the creation or update happens locally and will not be propagated upwards in the execution hierarchy.

deletions An array containg JSON objects. Each JSON object has a property name, which is the name of the variable to delete, and a property local, to indicate whether the variable must be deleted locally or not. If local is set to true, the deletion does not propagate upwards in the case execution hierarchy.

Result

This method returns no content.
