Operate

JSON display in Operate

Self-ManagedSaaSOperate

Camunda 8.10 introduces an update to the JSON display functionality in Operate (SaaS).

You can now:

  • Open JSON variables in a dedicated JSON viewer directly from the variables panel, without entering editing mode.
  • View JSON values with consistent, easier to understand formatting.
  • Copy full JSON variable values to the clipboard.
  • Use the improved in-line variables display.

This change helps navigate more complex data during operations and troubleshooting.

Camunda Hub

Unified navigation and context-aware sidebar

Self-ManagedSaaSCamunda Hub

Camunda Hub provides a single, unified navigation with persistent breadcrumbs and a context-aware sidebar across your organization, workspace/project, and Orchestration Cluster views.

Usage & billing metrics for 2025 enterprise license model

SaaSCamunda Hub

Camunda now supports the 2025 enterprise license model in Camunda Hub and Accounts.

  • A new licensing_model attribute on OrganizationMetaData identifies whether an enterprise organization is on the 2025 or legacy license model. If unset, it is treated as legacy.
  • For organizations with licensing_model = 2025, Usage and Billing views show only Process Instance (PI) metrics. Decision Instance (DI) and Unique Task User (TU) information is no longer rendered. Legacy organizations continue to see the existing metric set.
  • For enterprise (salesplantype = enterprise) organizations, the licensing model is visible in the organization details and can be edited via a modal action that lets admins select legacy or 2025.
  • The enterprise onboarding wizard now includes a license selection step, defaulting to 2025, and the ExternalOnboardingRouter accepts an optional licensing model parameter (defaulting to 2025 when not provided).

Cluster version selection for SaaS orchestration clusters

SaaSCamunda HubOrchestration Cluster

You can now create new SaaS Orchestration Clusters on specific supported Camunda 8 minor and patch versions, including:

  • The latest recommended versions (latest patch of each active minor)
  • Other still-supported versions that you already run on existing clusters in the same organization.

Intelligent document processing (IDP)

Support for ABBYY as an IDP Provider

Self-ManagedSaaSIDP

Camunda IDP now supports ABBYY as a document extraction provider.

Modeler

Support for configurable headers for execution listeners

Self-ManagedSaaSWeb ModelerDesktop Modeler

Execution listeners now support configurable headers, aligned with service task job headers.

  • In BPMN, execution listeners can define <zeebe:taskHeaders>. The headers are passed to the listener’s job worker alongside any base-element headers, with listener headers overriding on key conflicts.
  • Modeler lets you configure execution listener headers visually (name/value pairs) without editing BPMN XML.
  • Listener workers can consume these headers as metadata and configuration parameters using the same patterns as service task job workers.
