getting the groupId from task

[akuppu]

Is it possible to get the groupId from task object?

I see that there is task.getActualOwner() which gives the userID if it has already assigned one. 

In my tasks screen, I would like to show groupId to which it's asssigned to , before anyone claimed it.

you should be able to get them from task variables (task content) as by default all user task parameters go into task content.

The content approach seems to be cumbersome.

I am able to get it from workItem. 

WorkItemManager witm = (WorkItemManager)session.getWorkItemManager();

WorkItem w = witm.getWorkItem(task.getTaskData().getWorkItemId());

String groupId = w.getParameter("GroupId").toString();
