Embedded form on a start event

The check compat/start-event-form-embedded, in the group Engine compatibility.

Advice

Why it matters

Embedded forms on a start event are deprecated in this version and stop working in a later one.

How to fix it

Move the form to a .form file and link it from the start event.

Where you see it

The Problems tab lists it under Engine, the editor marks the element on the canvas, and penstock check reports it as compat/start-event-form-embedded. It checks the diagram against the engine and the version it is written for: the version in the file's modeler:executionPlatformVersion, or the newest one when the file has none. Operaton and CIB seven are checked as Camunda 7. This check is free.

To turn it off, set camunda-compat/start-event-form-embedded or compat/start-event-form-embedded to off in your .bpmnlintrc. See Validation.
