uip maestro bpmn debug

Upload a local Maestro BPMN project (or a single .bpmn file) to Studio Web and run a server-side debug session with streamed status updates using `uip maestro bpmn debug`.

uip maestro bpmn debug uploads a local Maestro project — or a single .bpmn file — to Studio Web and runs a server-side debug session, streaming per-element status updates back to the console and returning a final status. It's registered under the bpmn branch.

Synopsis

uip maestro bpmn debug [project-path]
                  [--bpmn-file <path>]
                  [--folder-id <id>]
                  [--poll-interval <ms>]
                  [-i, --inputs <json>]
                  [--login-validity <minutes>]
uip maestro bpmn debug [project-path]
                  [--bpmn-file <path>]
                  [--folder-id <id>]
                  [--poll-interval <ms>]
                  [-i, --inputs <json>]
                  [--login-validity <minutes>]

Requires uip login. Honors global options. Exit codes follow the standard contract.

Arguments

  • [project-path] (optional) — path to the Maestro project directory. Must contain project.uiproj. Omit when using --bpmn-file. One of <project-path> or --bpmn-file is required; passing both is an error ("Provide either a project path or --bpmn-file, not both.").

Options

OptionDefaultDescription
--bpmn-file <path>Debug a single .bpmn file directly instead of a project directory. Mutually exclusive with <project-path>.
--folder-id <id>auto-detectedOrchestrator folder (OrganizationUnitId). If omitted, the folder on the current login session is used. Parsed and validated via parseFolderId.
--poll-interval <ms>2000Polling interval in milliseconds. Must be a positive number.
-i, --inputs <json>Input arguments as JSON string, or @path/to/file.json.
--login-validity <minutes>10Minimum minutes before token expiration to trigger an automatic refresh.

Behavior

  1. Validates login and pulls the organization, tenant, base URL, and auth token from the session.
  2. Uploads the project to Studio Web under the target folder.
  3. Polls for a final status, emitting per-element status lines like:
    Status: InProgress (2/5 elements completed)
      v Activity_1 [Completed]
      > Activity_2 [InProgress]
      - Activity_3 [NotStarted]
    Status: InProgress (2/5 elements completed)
      v Activity_1 [Completed]
      > Activity_2 [InProgress]
      - Activity_3 [NotStarted]
    
  4. On incidents during the run, emits a log line.
  5. Exits 0 if finalStatus is Completed or Successful; 1 otherwise.

Examples

# Debug with auto-detected folder
uip maestro bpmn debug ./invoice-orchestration

# Specify folder and inline inputs
uip maestro bpmn debug ./invoice-orchestration --folder-id 2553016 \
  --inputs '{"amount":100,"customer":"Acme"}'

# Inputs from a file
uip maestro bpmn debug ./invoice-orchestration --inputs @inputs.json

# Debug a single .bpmn file directly, without a full project directory
uip maestro bpmn debug --bpmn-file ./main.bpmn
# Debug with auto-detected folder
uip maestro bpmn debug ./invoice-orchestration

# Specify folder and inline inputs
uip maestro bpmn debug ./invoice-orchestration --folder-id 2553016 \
  --inputs '{"amount":100,"customer":"Acme"}'

# Inputs from a file
uip maestro bpmn debug ./invoice-orchestration --inputs @inputs.json

# Debug a single .bpmn file directly, without a full project directory
uip maestro bpmn debug --bpmn-file ./main.bpmn
