Related to #3656

Depends on camunda-community-hub/zeebe-client-node-js#338 to be integrated.

Integrated zeebe-node via 2e75d7e.

Looks great and works for me.

👍 for cleaning up on the way 🙂

I found a related issue when setting form-id in the properties panel
#3963

[marstamm]

I can deploy forms to an 8.3.1 SaaS cluster (so the modeler part works), but Tasklist does not seem to pick it up. Is this expected? Is there an easy way to test it end to end?

I'd verify two things:

• Is it deployed according to zeebe ➡️ check deployed resources
• Are we running into the "tasklist idle timeout" trap?

Fix for #3963: bpmn-io/bpmn-js-properties-panel#998

I'd verify two things:

• Are we running into the "tasklist idle timeout" trap?

I am running into problems in the first step: Where can we even check deployed resources? Console does not show it, Operate only shows Processes (and Decision INSTANCES, no definitions), Tasklist shows Tasks and process Definitions. zbctl does not seem to have a "list" method either.

Am I missing something?

@marstamm It looks to me as if tasklist does not support deployments yet, it will come with the next alpha (https://github.com/camunda/tasklist/issues/3463).

[marstamm]

Okay, that makes sense then. Just wanted to clarify if this was expected, and it seems that it is :)

We indeed need to trust the response we get from zeebe-node for the time being.
