activiti moduler candidateGroups fixed values

[kdevineni1]

When designing the workflow I choose the candidateGroups fixed value options, as shown in the screenshots.

These groups are created in the Identigroup , ogranizatin tab.

When trying to start the process instance , keep geting the below number format error for the group, 

I have worked on multiple workflows with the community edition with activiti:candidateGroups takes the groupname string, and resolves correctly.

Not clearly sure whats different in the APS .

Any advice would be helpful, thanks in advance.

In APS for candidate group assignments, you'll have to pass in the group db id instead of group name. use the rest API to find your group's ID ("id" will be present for each entry in response JSON)

Thanks for the respone.

Assuming the candidateGroups replaced with a variable and updating this variable in the task create listener will work.

Will try that shortly....
