Configure exposed processes and services
During development in IBM Process Designer, process authors determine which processes, services, reports, and other items are available and to which participant groups. After a process application is installed on a Process Server in a different environment (test or production), you might need to disable a particular exposed item within that application.
Items that are exposed are accessible to the designated group of users.
For example, users in the designated group can start an exposed process in IBM Process Portal.
Use the Process Admin Console to configure exposed processes and services for a snapshot.
Procedure
- Log in to the Process Admin Console, and then click Deployed Apps to show the list of current snapshots on the server.
- Click the snapshot you want to work with.
- From the top toolbar, click Exposing.
- Click the check box next to the item that you want to disable. The item is no longer exposed to the selected group. When the exposure setting is disabled, the users within the group can no longer start or otherwise manipulate the process or service on the current server.
If you are disabling an Undercover Agent (UCA), you can determine the specific type of the UCA by observing the symbol beside the UCA name:
- A Content UCA is identified by a folder symbol.
- A Message UCA is identified by an envelope symbol.
- A Timer UCA is identified by a clock symbol.
When you disable items that are not exposed to a particular participant group, such as web services and UCAs, those items cannot be run on the current server.
