Upgrade with
pip install robotframework-camunda==0.9.0

Example:

*** Settings ***

Library    Collections

*** Variables ***
${PROCESS_KEY}     apply for job promotion

    start process   ${PROCESS_KEY}   variables=${priviliged_colleague}    files=${cv}    after_activity_id= 'Activity_ask_boss_for_persmission'
