resumeHaltedProcessInstance

Resumes execution of a process instance that has halted as a result of an activity failure. The task that failed is skipped.

  • The request must specify the ID of the process instance that is to be resumed.
  • The response indicates whether the process instance has been successfully resumed.
Note: The process instance immediately enters a FAILED state. This operation effectively allows the erroring process instance to resume and then fail as if it had never halted. This would typically be used if the reason for the failed task cannot be resolved.

This is one of four operations that can be used to deal with a process instance that is in a HALTED state as a result of an activity failure. See also:

This operation can only be used on a process instance that is in a HALTED state. To resume a process instance that is in a SUSPENDED state, use resumeProcessInstance instead.
