Hi @rajab ,
thanks for posting.
Could you please provide us with links to the workflow you mention and your workflow if possible, such that we could reproduce the error and check what is happening under the hood?
Thanks.
Best,
Daria

Hi Daria,

One of the activity name in the second use case data has the symbol ‘&’, after replacing it as ‘and’, i’m getting the expected result. Petrinet visualizer is working fine after this change in data.
