Accessing existing processes
Before we can open an existing process in the KIE Workbench, we first need to find it. In
the KIE Workbench, there are two different ways to search for an existing process: through
the
Project Explorer
section in the
Project Authoring
perspective's left-hand side or
through the
Search…
textbox on the right-hand side of the action toolbar.
The
Project Explorer
will give us (by default) an accordion-based view of all possible as-
sets, split by asset type. Processes will reside in the
Business Processes
tab. We can change
this by clicking on the gear button next to the
Project Explorer
title and selecting the
Re-
pository View
option to see all files with their extension type and to browse subfolders.
If you're not sure where you stored the process you're searching for, you can use the
Search…
textbox to search by the name or part of the process name. A list with links to
different matches will appear in the editor panel. Each one will have an
Open
button that
we can use to open the desired process in the Web Process Designer.
