Hi Wenbin,

What are you trying to do?

If you are trying to get the Process Instance ID via the API you need to be on at least 7.3 to use the BPM API.

If you are simply trying to get the Process Instance ID via the BPM BI DataSources - for reporting - then you use data source BI_BPM_MY_PROCESSES_DS.

Regards,

Jocelyn

CE 7.2 does not have standard way of getting Process Instance Id.In 7.3 Ehp1, there is a ProcessInstanceAttributes structure that has process instance id. This is available automatically in the process context.

Wenbin,

What is the use case? Why is process instance id required. In CE 7.2, there are no straight forward ways to get the process instance id. Most of the common requirements could be met even with out process instance id.
