How to assign a task to 3-4 users of different group?

Question

I have a user input task , I want to assign task to 3-4 users dynamically using if else 
 for example: 
 local!flag:true 
 local!myArray: { { name: "Aish", category: "A" }, { name: "Jenny", category: "A" }, },

if local!flag is true, assign task to users in local!myArray , 
 else assign task to a single user i.e loggedinuser()

Please help

There are two parts to this: 
 1. How do I dynamically assign a Task to a list of Users? 
 2. How do I ensure that each User gets their own copy of the Task 
 The first part is relatively straightforward. Create a process variable of type 'User' and make it a multiple so that it can hold an array of Users. In your example you would branch (using an XOR) depending on the value of local!flag. In the false branch set your new process variable to loggedInUser(). In the true branch extract the User accounts from your array, cast them to User (if needed) and store them in the same process variable. 
 In your User Input Task you can set the Assignment to use the value it find in your process variable. 
 The second part - to ensure each assigned User gets their own copy of the Task - requires you make the User Input Task an MNI (multi-node instance). Go to the 'Other' tab of the User Input Task, check the 'Automatically run multiple instances of this node' checkbox and then select the ' Run one instance for each assignee' radio button. 
 Then comes the slightly harder part - deciding whether you want the process to flow downstream each time a User completes their Task or when they've all completed their tasks. That depends entirely on what output the User Input Tasks pass back to the process model and what you want/need to do with that
