- Method Detail
  - getId
```
String getId()
```
    The process instance id (== as the id for the runtime process instance).
  - getBusinessKey
```
String getBusinessKey()
```
    The user provided unique reference to this process instance.
  - getProcessDefinitionId
```
String getProcessDefinitionId()
```
    The process definition reference.
  - getProcessDefinitionName
```
String getProcessDefinitionName()
```
    The name of the process definition of the process instance.
  - getProcessDefinitionKey
```
String getProcessDefinitionKey()
```
    The key of the process definition of the process instance.
  - getProcessDefinitionVersion
```
Integer getProcessDefinitionVersion()
```
    The version of the process definition of the process instance.
  - getDeploymentId
```
String getDeploymentId()
```
    The deployment id of the process definition of the process instance.
  - getStartTime
```
Date getStartTime()
```
    The time the process was started.
  - getEndTime
```
Date getEndTime()
```
    The time the process was ended.
  - getDurationInMillis
```
Long getDurationInMillis()
```
    The difference between getEndTime() and getStartTime() .
  - getEndActivityId
```
String getEndActivityId()
```
    Reference to the activity in which this process instance ended. Note that a process instance can have multiple end events, in this case it might not be deterministic which activity id will be referenced here. Use a HistoricActivityInstanceQuery instead to query for end events of the process instance (use the activityTYpe attribute)
  - getStartUserId
```
String getStartUserId()
```
    The authenticated user that started this process instance.
    
    See Also:
    
    IdentityService#setAuthenticatedUserId(String)
  - getStartActivityId
```
String getStartActivityId()
```
    The start activity.
  - getDeleteReason
```
String getDeleteReason()
```
    Obtains the reason for the process instance's deletion.
  - getSuperProcessInstanceId
```
String getSuperProcessInstanceId()
```
    The process instance id of a potential super process instance or null if no super process instance exists
  - getTenantId
```
String getTenantId()
```
    The tenant identifier for the process instance.
  - getName
```
String getName()
```
    The name for the process instance.
  - getDescription
```
String getDescription()
```
    The description for the process instance.
  - getProcessVariables
```
Map<String,Object> getProcessVariables()
```
    Returns the process variables if requested in the process instance query
