Create a process instance

The following must be provide in the request body:

• Process definition ID.
• Context string. Includes contextual information that is relevant for the caller after the process instance has been created.
• Artifact ID.
• Properties. The properties provided here will be merged with the process definition properties.

Two implicit tokens (reserved flow input variable names) are provided to process instances executed through the OO execution engine.

• CSA_PROCESS_ID - will be provided the value of the UUID of the process instance.
• CSA_CONTEXT_ID - will be provided the value of the Artifact ID. This is the artifact for which this process instance executes.
