Your expression is not correct:

taskPayloadData.processPayload.id

should be:

actually i have given example for setting id value in client program..its a sample not the exact one..
PayloadRequest processPaylaod = new PayloadRequest ();
processPaylaod.setId(1001);

PayloadRequest has variable with name processPayload(another pojo object). In my client program to invoke the process I'm using as below
PayloadRequest requestPaylaod = new PayloadRequest ();
processPaylaod.getProcessPayload().setId(1001);

Yes task form is created in activiti explorer with the values I have used while invoking process instance.

That makes it a bit difficult to respond if I don't see the code that you are actually using.
Did you check if the database contains a record with the taskPayloadData variable? (ACT_RU_VARIABLE)
Are you sure that both the Explorer and REST web applications point to the same database?

Best regards,
