Create a New Vocabulary
Create a new Vocabulary that enforces JSON schema compliance in your ProcessMaker Platform assets.
Create a New Vocabulary
A Vocabulary is a JSON schema designed to validate ProcessMaker Platform assets to which that Vocabulary is applied. Any ProcessMaker Platform asset to which that Vocabulary is applied must conform to that JSON schema. Vocabularies are granular, in that one or more Vocabularies can be assigned to specific BPMN 2.0 element types within a Process or the Process model itself to validate the ProcessMaker Platform asset that is referenced from that element.
See Vocabulary Design Best Practices before you start designing a Vocabulary.
Follow these steps to create a new Vocabulary:
View your Vocabularies. The Vocabularies page displays.
In the Title field, enter the name of the Vocabulary. This name must be unique from all other Vocabularies. This is a required field.
In the Description field, enter the description of the Vocabulary. This is a required field.
Optionally, click the Browse button beside the JSON Schema field to locate the JSON schema from which ProcessMaker Platform assets are to conform. This file must use the
.json
file extension. This setting is not required because you can design the Vocabulary after is it is created.Click Save. The Edit page displays the Vocabulary. See Edit a Vocabulary.
