The Database Connection & Query Execution Plugin is a powerful extension designed to enhance data integration, automation, and workflow intelligence within your BPMS platform.
This plugin allows organizations to establish secure and reliable database connections outside process cycles and use them effortlessly inside forms, workflows, and automated tasks. It supports three major database engines MySQL, SQLite, and SQL Server making it a flexible solution for connecting internal systems, legacy applications, and external software platforms.
With this plugin, you can easily execute SQL queries (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) without any scripting or complex coding. Process designers can run queries directly inside workflows through the dedicated Query Execution Task, enabling real-time data retrieval, data updates, and seamless system-to-system communication. Returned values can be stored in process variables and used across tasks, decisions, and form validations.
The plugin also introduces a smart Query-Based Dropdown Field inside the Form Builder. This feature allows you to populate dropdowns, radio buttons, checkbox groups, and dependent fields using live data fetched from your connected database.
Designers simply select a connection, write a SQL query, and define the return values. This capability dramatically improves form accuracy, performance, and user experience, especially in data-driven business processes.
Additional features include connection management, connection testing, editable configuration panels, and advanced options for result limitations and default values. Whether you are integrating isolated systems, centralizing organizational data, or building dynamic forms, this plugin provides a fast, secure, and scalable solution.
This plugin empowers ProcessMaker/BPMS users to build smarter workflows, reduce manual data handling, and enable consistent, database-driven automation across the entire organization.
