API Definitions running mode - Actions on a workflow instance
1

Hi everybody,

According to the documentation (2025 R2), there should be a running mode for API Definitions (User Defined API) called “Actions on a workflow instance” which, depending on the selected action, allows using PATCH requests:

https://docs.webcon.com/docs/2025R2/Studio/Process/APIDefinition/#2-running-mode

However, in my 2025 R2 environment I can only see these running modes:
• Run automation
• Get data from data source
• Get data from element instance

The tooltip in Designer for Get data from element instance says: “Allows you to retrieve element instance data from the process where the user API is defined. The mode supports GET requests.”

Am I missing something, or is “Actions on a workflow instance” available only in a different version/build?

Thanks in advance!
