Hi All,
I have a Process model to be exposed as a web service which has to return process variables of that instance on calling the web service. I understand that it can only return process ID as response but no other parameters. Is there any way we can do it ? If not, is there any alternative which full fills the requirement ?

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
Monika...

As per my understanding the reason why this feature does not allow to return any parameter as output because
1. It launches a new process and we will be not sure when this process variable going to have value. so it is not wise to return any parameter as output.
2. But you can use callback design approach to overcome this problem.
3. Or have look on Web API OOB feature of Appian 7.9,this might help you.
