Today we released a new version of Flowable with the 6.2.1 release.
The 6.2.1 release has the following highlights:
Lots of additions to the CMMN 1.1 Engine, including timer support, repetition support, DMN and HTTP task support and variable query support.
Rest documentation is now also generated based on the Swagger definitions to ensure it’s always in sync with the REST controller code.
Improved support of ChangeActivityStateBuilder to move an execution in a process instance to another activity that’s part of the process definition.
Enhanced the CMMN Modeler palette with timer event listeners, DMN and HTTP tasks and additional properties like timer expressions and repetition expressions.
Improved support of CMMN in the Flowable Task app.
Various small bugfixes all around.

To harmonize the deployers between the BPMN and CMMN engine the ProcessEngineConfigurator interface has been renamed to EngineConfigurator and moved to the flowable-engine-common module. In addition a new flowable-spring-common module has been added to shared common Spring classes between the BPMN and CMMN spring modules.
Enterprises need to process a large volume if documents daily — quickly and accurately. Flowable uses Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) to improve content processing and support enterprises in managing documents end-to-end.
CMMN was mainly designed with case management in mind to handle dynamic, human-driven processes, where the execution is not always a straight line, but might involve human decision to drive the process forward. But it can do way more than that.
Tools like ChatGPT can handle a variety of business tasks, automating nearly everything. And it’s true, GenAI really can do a wide range of tasks that humans do currently. Why not let business users work directly with AI then? And what about Agentic AI?
