Possible Workarounds

not with this library

Since business key is something specific for Camunda 7 (even C8 doesn't have it), it's probably not part of the general API. Proposal: write it into a meta field and (by naming convention) map it to the business key in the c7-adapters.

CommonRestrictions even contains a BUSINESS_KEY constant.
