Description

bug

I'm trying to set some workflow variables just after starting a workflow with this code:

clients = OrkesClients(configuration=config)
executor = WorkflowExecutor(config)
runner = clients.get_workflow_client()

request = StartWorkflowRequest(
            name="flow", correlation_id="corr_id", version=1)
flow_id = runner.start_workflow(request)
runner.update_variables(flow_id, variables={"myglobal": "global"})

But I'm getting a 404 error, which is returned as result of an internal ApiException raised from conductor/client/http/rest.py. It seems it is unable to reach /workflows/{workflow_id}/variables:

Could this be something related to the workflow still starting execution?
