Description

In camunda/camunda#41143 we updated the behavior of single process-instance variable modifications. The changes have been described here and here. This PR adjust the user-guide section on editing existing variables, which has been limited with the linked changes.

Open Question

Should further sections be adjusted? I am mainly thinking about limitations and unsupported modifications, although they mainly focus on unsupported token modifications.

When should this change go live?

  • This is a bug fix, security concern, or something that needs urgent release support. (add bug or support label)
  • This is already available but undocumented and should be released within a week. (add available & undocumented label)
  • This is on a specific schedule and the assignee will coordinate a release with the Documentation team. (create draft PR and/or add hold label)
  • This is part of a scheduled alpha or minor. (add alpha or minor label)
  • There is no urgency with this change (add low prio label)

PR Checklist

  • My changes are for an upcoming minor release and are in the /docs directory (version 8.9).
  • My changes are for an already released minor and are in a /versioned_docs directory.
