Hi All,
Is there anyway to start a process model by using Process Model Id or Process UUID?

I hope I haven't confused you by my reference to a constant - it was just meant to illustrate how I know that you can use the Process Model Id in the two different start process functions.
Yeah I got Stewart Thank you.
that's not actually true - it would accept process model ID also (the process model type constant actually evaluates to the PM ID). The reason we want to use a constant anyway is, the PM ID is environment-specific.
Thanks for the Correction Mike. I really appreciate it.
If you really need to store the UUID somewhere, you can use that plug-in to retrieve details about the process model (including ID) from the UUID, then use the ID for whatever you want. Though I'm not really clear why you need to do this run-around; it seems like probably more trouble than it's worth.
