Hi,&nbsp;

&nbsp;

There is an API to update a Human task, and specify an assigned id:  
[https://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bonita/7.10/bpm-api#toc3](https://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bonita/7.10/bpm-api#toc3)

So the solution to create a "take button" from an UID page would be to create a button with a PUT action, and to send the required payload using the logged in user.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

An alternative solution would be to use the _assign before submit_ option in the submit buttons of your forms. I

f you check this option, then you won't have to perform take actions anymore, task will be assigned to the current logged in user just before to be submitted.&nbsp;  
  
Regards,&nbsp;

Adrien
