Body

application/json
​
processInstanceIds
string[] | null

A list of process instance ids that define a group of process instances to which the operation will set variables.

Please note that if processInstanceIds, processInstanceQuery and historicProcessInstanceQuery are defined, the resulting operation will be performed on the union of these sets.

​
processInstanceQuery
object

A process instance query which defines a group of process instances

​
historicProcessInstanceQuery
object

A historic process instance query which defines a group of historic process instances

​
variables
object | null

A variables the operation will set in the root scope of the process instances.

Response
