+ | ==== Starting an instance via a webform ==== | ||
+ | Process instances can be from without TIM via a [[en:software:tim:webform|Webform]]. This particularly useful if not all process participants have access to TIM. How to create webform is described in detail in the [[en:software:tim:webform|Webform page]].\\ | ||
+ | \\ In the webform the process instance is created on submission by the following line. In the example a process instance of the **8D Problem Solving** process is created. | ||
+ | <code><input type="hidden" name="processdefinition" id="processdefinition" value="8D Problem Solving" /></code> | ||
+ | <note important>To start a process instance via a webform, the respective process definition has to be published in TIM</note> | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Starting an instance via a URL ==== | ||
+ | Furthermore instances can be started via a URL. To do so, the term **startProcessInstanceByProcessDefinition="name of the process definition"** is attached to the TIM server URL.\\ | ||
+ | The following example URL starts an instance of the 8D Problem Solving process | ||
+ | <code>http://tim.taskinmotion.de/loom-portal/client/todo/index.htm?startProcessInstanceByProcessDefinition=8D%20Problem%20Solving</code> | ||
