Hello Sathish,
You mention a particular scenario, that I copied here:
What is a good way to handle a scenario where if a task is assigned to a user, then any other user should not be able to claim the task as it is already assigned to an user(individual). If it is assigned to a group, then the user(individual) can claim the task to work on it.
This is precisely what BAW provides. If a task is assigned to a user, then that task does not appear on the work lists of other users. If the task is assigned to a group, then it will appear on the work lists of all users in the group. Once a user in the group claims the task then it is automatically removed from the work list of the other users.

Subject: IBM BPM Task Assignment
I have a query regarding task assignments in IBM BPM. My understanding is that tasks can be assigned to groups, individual users or group of users.
Is there an API(JavaScript/REST) which tells us that the task is assigned to an individual user or if it is assigned to a group.
What is a good way to handle a scenario where if a task is assigned to a user, then any other user should not be able to claim the task as it is already assigned to an user(individual). If it is assigned to a group, then the user(individual) can claim the task to work on it.
Thank You,
