Easy BPM Documentation

Easy BPM is a developer-friendly business process platform for modeling, running, and operating business workflows. It includes a process modeler, runtime API, task portal, admin console, asynchronous worker, document handling, code-task execution, and security administration.

This documentation is written for customer developers and technical operators. It focuses on how to install the platform, create processes, integrate systems, complete user work, and use the public API.

Model workflows

Use the Modeler to build process definitions with tasks, gateways, messages, timers, and subprocesses.

Run work

Start process instances, route human tasks, exchange variables, and resume waiting processes.

Integrate systems

Call HTTP APIs, publish and catch messages, upload documents, and execute JVM code through Code Tasks.

Operate safely

Use JWT authentication, RBAC permissions, process monitoring, audit views, health checks, and Prometheus metrics.

Platform components

Component	What it does
Backend API	Runs process definitions, stores instances and variables, exposes REST endpoints, and manages security.
Worker	Consumes asynchronous work from RabbitMQ and executes long-running API/service work.
Modeler	Browser app for creating process definitions, forms, API tasks, code tasks, AI tasks, and subprocesses.
Task Portal	Browser app where users start processes, claim tasks, complete forms, and upload or preview documents.
Admin Console	Browser app for monitoring instances, changing variables, moving tokens, managing users/groups, and viewing code-task audits.
PostgreSQL	Stores process definitions, instances, tasks, forms, documents, security data, and audit records.
RabbitMQ	Coordinates asynchronous work between the backend and worker.
