Features

• Workflow Engine has been upgraded to version 17.1.0, refer to the release notes for more information.
• Two new health check endpoints added:
  • /liveness: Verifies that WorkflowServer is responding to HTTP requests.
  • /readiness: Confirms that WorkflowServer is ready to handle real workflow execution.
• Two new endpoints added to WorkflowApi:
  • SetActivityWithExecution: Sets the current activity and immediately continues process execution. If the activity has an implementation or a transition with an auto trigger, they will be executed.
  • SetActivityWithoutExecution: Sets the current activity without triggering further process execution.
