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.
