Procedure

1. To enable sending information to ElasticSearch, complete one of the following steps:

   1. If you deployed the KIE Server on Red Hat JBoss EAP or another application server:

      1. Download the rhpam-7.11.0-maven-repository.zip product deliverable file from the Software Downloads page of the Red Hat Customer Portal.
      2. Extract the contents of the file.
      3. Copy the maven-repository/org/jbpm/jbpm-event-emitters-elasticsearch/7.52.0.Final-redhat-00007/jbpm-event-emitters-elasticsearch-7.52.0.Final-redhat-00007.jar file into the deployments/kie-server.war/WEB-INF/lib subdirectory of the application server.

   2. If you deployed the application using Spring Boot, add the following lines to the <dependencies> list in the pom.xml file of your service:

      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.jbpm</groupId>
        <artifactId>jbpm-event-emitters-elasticsearch</artifactId>
        <version>${version.org.kie}</version>
      </dependency>
