Can Activiti engine(activiti bpmn 2.0) read a file located outside the classpath?

Question

I have a spring boot activiti project and my activiti bpmn file is located in classpath: src/main/resources/processes. What I need is, instead of reading from classpath I need to read the file from the system file path or outside from the resources folder.

Can anyone please help me on this

Just add below configuration in your application.properties file.

spring.activiti.checkProcessDefinitions = true
spring.activiti.processDefinitionLocationPrefix = file:D:/Users/ActivitiProcess/
spring.activiti.processDefinitionLocationSuffixes = *.bpmn20.xml, *.bpmn
