The smart service "Find Archived Processes by Date & PM UUID v2" isn't working. It is always returning empty result for the given process UUID with correct archive date.

Any idea when will it get fixed?

For future reference: in this case, "INVALID_STATE" originated from trying to update the version of a completed process instance. Once I restarted it (for example, restarting an arbitrary task within the completed instance), the version update worked fine for that instance.

I sorta wish we didn't have to do that, though, because in this case I need to update some completed instances then restart them on an added path.

hey Ben - if there's any sort of update here that'd be nice - i'm currently trying to use the Update Process Instance to New Version smart service for an emergency fix, but it's erroring out with a return code of simply, "INVALID_STATE", and of course I have no idea why that might be. Thanks!

I usually check 'Generate Documentation' first - it shows the node UUID pretty clearly there, for any node in a process model.

I haven't heard anything back. Most of the instances I try to un-archive work, but some just simply don't.

Hi Mike Schmitt ,

We are also facing same issue. I am running the Unarchive Process V2 smart service using System Admin account. Still getting the same error.

Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated.
