@infinitysiddhu, are you certain that the username is an email address? On at least one occasion, I ran into flowable-idm not allowing me to log in with an email address for a username. If you’ve got flowable-admin running, you can look for the task in the Process Engine -> Task list and see who the assignee is.

Will

I checked and it showing assignee as $INITIATOR, but when login as titan user I am not able to get the task. none of thease task querys giveing result.

tasks = taskService.createTaskQuery().taskOwner(user.getEmail()).orderByTaskCreateTime().desc().list();
System.out.println(“11. You have " + tasks.size() + " tasks:”);
tasks =taskService.createTaskQuery().taskCandidateOrAssigned(user.getEmail()).list();
System.out.println(“12. You have " + tasks.size() + " tasks:”);
tasks =taskService.createTaskQuery().taskAssignee(user.getEmail()).list();
System.out.println(“13. You have " + tasks.size() + " tasks:”);
taskService.createTaskQuery().taskCandidateUser(user.getEmail()).list();
System.out.println(“15. You have " + tasks.size() + " tasks:”);
tasks =taskService.createTaskQuery().taskInvolvedUser(user.getEmail()).list();
System.out.println(“14. You have " + tasks.size() + " tasks:”);

Is it showing as the string “$INITIATOR”? How are you starting the process?

I think the issue is that you’re trying to pull the initiator out of a process variable using the the built in “$INITIATOR”.

If you’re going to pass it in as part of the process variables, try referencing it as ${initiator}, though I would suggest changing the variable name so you don’t conflict with the engine attempting to set the initiator base on the logged in user.
