Flowable REST API is one of 7 APIs that [Flowable](https://apis.io/providers/flowable-api/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include BPM, REST, and Workflows. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and a GitHub repository.

Flowable also ships a packaged REST API webapp that exposes the Process Engine services over HTTP. The REST API covers process definitions and deployments, process instances and variables, user tasks and forms, history, identity, and engine management, allowing non-Java clients to drive BPMN, CMMN, and DMN processes from any platform.
