Deployments

Flowset Control enables administrators to view and manage deployments containing process definitions, decision tables, and other resources. All deployments are displayed in a sortable, filterable list within the Deployments view.

Deployment List

The deployment list view displays all deployments currently present in the system in a table format:

deployments

Use the search field to find deployments by name, or date.

The following actions are available:

Action Description

Refresh

Reloads the current deployment list from the connected BPM engine.

Remove

Deletes the selected deployment. A confirmation dialog appears with the following options:

  • All instances: Remove associated running and historical process instances.

  • Skip custom listeners: When enabled, only the engine’s built-in listeners are executed during deletion. Custom listener logic will be bypassed.

  • Skip I/O mappings: When enabled, the input/output variable mappings defined for the deployment are ignored during the deletion process.

Once confirmed, the deployment is permanently removed.

View

Displays detailed deployment information. See Viewing Deployment Details.

Viewing Deployment Details

To inspect the contents of a deployment, select the View action from the deployment list. This opens a dedicated details view organized into two main panels.

Metadata Panel

The left panel displays essential information about the deployment:

  • Deployment id - the unique identifier assigned by the system.

  • Name - the human-readable name of the deployment.

  • Deployment time - the exact date and timestamp when the deployment was created.

  • Source - indicates the origin of the deployment. For example:

    • process application for deployments created during application startup.

    • Flowset Control for deployments uploaded directly through Flowset Control.

  • Tenant id - the tenant identifier associated with the deployment.

Below the metadata, the left panel also lists all deployment resources, including:

  • Process definitions

  • Decision tables

  • Other supported resources

Resource Preview Panel

The right panel dynamically displays a preview of the selected resource from the list. For files with visual components, like BPMN process diagrams or DMN decision tables, the system renders a graphical preview alongside the technical metadata.

Using the Download button, you can retrieve individual resource files (BPMN, DMN, and so on).

Depending on the resource type, the panel contains either two or three tabs.

View Tab

This tab provides a visual representation of the resource. For example:

  • Forms: Renders the form’s UI layout as it would appear to users.

  • DMN Decision Tables: Displays the DRD. Click any node in the DRD to open the corresponding DMN decision table in a detailed view.

Raw Tab

Shows the raw source code of the resource:

  • For DMN/BPMN files: displays the XML source.

  • For scripts/forms: shows the original text-based content.

Running Instances Tab (BPMN Only)

For BPMN process resource, this tab displays a table of active process instances launched from this definition.
