Error description

  • In order to provide more control over the use of the "execute
    javascript" REST API (v1/process/{instanceID}?action=js), audit
    logging is being added to allow customers have a level of
    traceability.   When the "execute javascript" REST API is
    called, a message will be logged to the server's trace.log file
    containing the username, current timestamp and the javascript
    expression being evaluated.
