Export Secure Zone Username Report

Strangely enough, I just found that while I can export a report with contacts' usernames and I can export a report with contacts and their secure zones, I can't export a report with both secure zones and each contact's username.
Can you help me work out how I could do it?
Even a thought on how to combine the two csv files with a script?
Thanks heaps,
Joshua

Hi Sidney,
I have discovered further problems now that I have added the login and password fields to the webform.
1. The webform did not update with the new fields when I went in to customise it. So I had to reset the form to original setup and lose all of the extra coding done on the form including:
a. javascript to set an expiry date for access to the secure zone
b. coding to the amount field so that it could not be changed
c. Zip to postcode and Cell to mobile phone labels
d. other fields marked as hidden
Below are screen shots to show that I added the password and login fields but they were not in the webform when I went in to edit it.
Not good.
Also, the javascript checking on the required fields for the forms are not working.
And finally, when testing the form and adding a username and password, the person was subscribed to the secure zone, but the welcome secure zone subscription email giving them the user name and password still did not trigger.
and
they were subscribed with a different username, not the one on the form.
So bottom line, webforms seem to be a bit broken at the moment. Is that the case? I have given up on doing the secure zone subscription from the forms now, and will tell the client it can't be done at the moment.
I still need to get the javascript checking working on the forms though, and remember submitting a question about that a while ago. Looks like it is still a problem.
Here is the screen showing that I added the new fields to the form and saved it.
Here is the web form editor screen - with the new fields not there!

Secure Zone Login Reporting

Question:
I have searched but can not find anyway to do this. I have a school site that has sent out secure zone passwords to all the parents. They would like to know which parents have actually logged in to check out the secure zone. Is there anyway to run a report on this?
I know this info shows up in the live feed but only recent activity shows there so that is not much help. Any ideas?
Answer:
There is no way you can view who is logging in other than in the live feed or recent activity in the customer tab. However you can view the secure zone usage which is under the secure zone action box.

Hi,
Inspect the form and you'll see that it draws its style from ModuleStyleSheets.css. Update those styles in any way you want: http://goo.gl/T0We6

Removal of unused Security zones for components

Hello,
We would like to start exporting Security zone changes and would like to clean up our source system by deleting the zones that have been established with have no associated objects. I attempted to export and then reimport and this works for zones which refer to deleted objects but not for those whose zone reference has been changed.
Does anyone know how to perform this cleanup.
Thanks, John

found that the PCD inspector will do the trick... only problem you have to check and delete each item 1 by 1.

Is there a way to log in to a Secure Zone with an email address intead of username?

Hi,
I want users to have the ability to login to a Secure Zone with which ever email address they used to sign up, not the username they created, as that is something they forget too often. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance!

hey Liam
maybe you could have a secondary field to use email address instead of username and when the customer enters their email address you could use the new BC.Next features to query the CRM (module_data) to retrieve the username
what do you think?
that would give you the option to use either?
but ur way is simplest

Secure Zone Update Detail From

When I insert an Update User Details from into my webpage I can no longer update/save the page or view he HTML tab
Any ideas why?

What a process this has been! Has anyone else found it difficult or is it just me?
Maybe there is an easier way, I'd love to know if that is the case.
If anyone is interested this was my experience in updating the Secure Zone Expiry dates for customers.
Export a report of all members (Select Users and Secure Zones) and filter by Secure Zone.
Export a report of all customers and make sure to select the field 'Username' (This is not available in the Users and Secure Zone report, how crazy is that!).
In Excel, merge the 2 reports to get usernnames for the members. Here is a good tutorial on how to do this Vlookup Excel Best - YouTube or Merge two excel files using a common column - Super User
After merging and cleaning up the data, copy to an import template and save as csv file.
Make sure that the date format in your Expiry dates are in the correct format ie 20-Feb-2020 (check in a text editor as excel can be tricky).
Import via advanced contact import and make sure to select the secure zone in checklist below or the date will not change.
Easy isn't it, ha.
If Adobe are listening, please add the 'Username' field to the Users and Secure Zone reports, this would save a lot of work.

Update secure zone expiry dates with an import

We are trying to update Secure Zone Expiry dates for customers via an import but the problem is when we create a report for Users and Secure Zones there is no field for 'Username' and from what I understand if we leave this blank when importing then the information will be deleted.

Why do I get these messages "logged in but not to a specific secure zone"

Could anyone please explain why this messge would appear on the dashboard
'username' logged in but not to a specific secure zone
instead of
'username' logged in to Member Only Area secure zone
On this website, customers can only log on to a secure zone, and there is only one secure zone.
Thanks

Hi Mario,
Thank you for your response.
There are only two places users could log in, and none have ZoneID=-1
I tested both options with one of my own (non admin account) login, and none produced the above message.
action="/ZoneProcess.aspx?ZoneID=51&OID=5459507&OTYPE=1"
action="/ZoneProcess.aspx?ZoneID=51&OID=5459507&OTYPE=1"
both ZoneID's are the same
What is weird though, only one specific user account is generating that message.
At this stage the user has not complained about not being able to access his/her data yet.
My only concern was that this could be a possible security risk.
Thanks

Securing LDAP username and password in Websphere

Hi all,
I am new to LDAP and WAS. I want to secure the username and password for my LDAP server. Right now i have two choices for using the username and password for the LDAP
1. i can put the username and password in a properties file.( but then it makes my application insecure....anybody can read it )
2. I can put them in a .java file and after compilation it would be converted to the class file.( but in this approach anyone who knows in which file it is residing can use a decompiler to read it)
I have seen one implementation for DB2 in which they make a datastore in the application server that holds the username and password for the DB2 server. I want to use same kind of facility for my application.
Can anyone help me with this...?

The error description is:

Secure Zone Login Issues: It worked great and now just stopped.

The secure zone on my client's site worked great for about a month and now it just stopped. All of a sudden it won't let us type into the username and password boxes. We can click on the "remember me" button and the "submit button" but not type. I've tried deleting and redoing the code and still nothing. Our issue is occuring most when used with Chrome's browser. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks for your reply, Liam. Oddly enough I was just reading your expectional contributor profile that popped up in my side collumn.
Here is the link to the site. The login works fine in Safari, it's just a problem with Chrome I believe.

The login area is in the bottom right of the footer titled "Employee Login."

Secure Zone login form logs user in who isn't registered for it?!

I have a client who runs an eCommerce site through BC. We have a secure zone setup for his site and he wants to review and approve users before they are given access. There is good reason for this so please don't bring up counter-points as it is non-negotiable.
Anyway, the secure zone registration form basicly creates a user CRM record and allows them to select a username and password. I've instructed to client to continue into the CRM and select the checkbox next to the appropriate secure zone in order to authorize the account to login. As far as we know this has been working until yesterday. Now, when somebody who has an account but it is not approved yet tries to login, they receive the form error as to be expected. However they get logged into some phantom secure zone.
I say "phantom" zone because the actual registration form doesn't subscribe them to a secure zone, it's manual (as previously stated). This is a pretty big issue as a major reason for doing this is that my client doesn't want his prices visible to the public. Only after the person is in the secure zone are prices visible. Any help would be much appreciated. I know BC launched a new update recently which my be a contributing factor....thanks in advance!

Hi Mike,
This has always been the case.
IF you have a username and password and login to a site you are logged in. You may very well not be part of a securezone but you are logged in. This is why hiding and showing content soley based on the isloggedin module is a very thoughtful process as you can not show content based on this knowledge.
This has nothing to do with the update, you probably only just noticed this behavior but this has been the case since BC born.

Secure Zone expiry by article value not by date

Hello Everyone,
We have been researching the BC tools along with Muse and love what we have found so far.
One request/feature we would like to explore...
Is it possible to calculate a members Secure Zone expiry by value rather than by date?
The reason I am asking is because a request has been raised that:
We apply a 'value/points' to a page/article (e.g. 2 points for a small article and 10 points for a long report).
When a member views the page, that 'value' is deducted from their 'total points' .
As a member uses up their pre purchased 'points' they would need to purchase more to see more articles in the secure zone.
Any comments on feasibility or other solutions are welcome.
Thanks in advance for any help in this matter.
Cheers
James

You can not do this in BC out of the box and 100% not through Muse.
You would have to build a combo of custom CRM fields for logged in users and possible API work to know total point values of content etc. But then if they are things like pages, blog, web apps the new API's are not for external API access just yet.

Single form for secure zone registration and web app submission?

Hi
Is it possible to setup a form where a user can simultaneously register for a secure zone and submit a web app entry? The knowledge base / tutorials describe a two step process (web form for secure zone registration and web app input form for web app submission), but I would like users to be able to do both with a single form
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
mls

In order to have a customer create a web app item they must be logged into the secure zone already. I've seen some instructions on how to let users submit web app items outside a secure zone but that requires creating a dummy anonymous user and logging them into the secure zone via javascript. You could use this method and once it's submitted you'll have to manually attach the web app item to the correct user in the BC Admin. That might not work for you but you can read more about that at http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1784
You can't use the above solution with the current user's username and password because those tags are only available when the user is logged into a secure zone already. If your signup form needs to be filled out first, the user isn't logged in.
Your best bet is to have the public signup form redirect the user after submission to an "Add item" form you have created. Maks sure that form is in a secure zone so when they add the item it is attached to their account.
If you don't want to redirect them to a secure zone and want it more seamless you could try to use some javascript/ajax to submit the form via javascript and after the form is submitted, use the javascript code in the above to log them in (be careful to use the https://yoursite.worldsecuresystems.com url if you are passing username and password info gathered from your form to log them in via javascript/ajax). Once they are logged in via the javascript you can use more ajax to fetch a page's HTML that resides in a secure zone. This HTML returned from the javascript can be your "add web app item" form and since they were logged in via javascript (securely, right?) this HTML should contain the right information. Insert this returned HTML into your form container that held the original signup form and they can continue to add a web app item without having to log in.
This is theory and might work but you'll have to start experimenting with it via javascript. I haven't actually tried to do this so hopefully some other community members who might have tried this can weigh in here as well.
Good luck!

In the CRM are these people assigned to that zone under "subscriptions" at the top?

Upgrading secure zone

Hi all,
I am looking to create a free trial secure zone and let users upgrade to a paid secure zone after 2 months.
When i pre-populate the fields with their username and email (the user will be logged into their trial account to access this form), when they submit the form, does business catalyst automatically add the new secure zone to the existing account, such that the account that the current user has will be subscribed to 2 secure zones?
Also, is it possible to program it such that the system will automatically send a notification via email when the user's subscription is about to expire? Like 2 weeks in advance,,

Hi,
Most likely you are under site plan webBasic or webBasic+ which does not include Secure Zone features.
For a breakdown of features per plan please view here. -> http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/kb/detailed-plan-breakdown.html

MaxL - Export Security File Command

Hi,
Ours is a planning application - Classic - 11.1.2.0 version.
I have a requirement where I need to get all the information regarding security defined on dimensions, data forums etc. The reason we are looking for this is so that we can compare the overlap (if any) of security given to any particular user - who mind end up being in two groups (in shared services) but each group has different access/permissions.
For instance - There is a user who has access to two data forms and say on one form he needs write access to Actuals and on all the other he should just have read access to Actuals. This user is in two groups and in one group he has been given write access to Actuals but in another group he was given read access to Actuals. So, based on this the "Write" permission will be dominant and he would be getting write on both the places which might not be efficient.
So, to avoid such situations I need to know the all security overlaps in a readable format. I did go through the Export Security File command but I am not sure if it would give me all the details I need. I did read the tech ref but couldn't get all the information. Will this command help to achieve my requirement? Are there any other better methods?
Please let me know your ideas. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you John for your prompt response.
I don't know why I didn't think of this when I was thinking about this issue...I mean I knew of this utility but it didn't struck me for some reason...sorry about that but I think this would help me :)
I also have another question - I don't know if I should have posted it as another post but please let me ask here.
Does, the dimension level security applied on Planning data forms also work on reporting?
We have situations where a user needs to work on data forms as well as work on reports. In data forms he should just be able to see part of customers but when working with reports he should be able to see all customers. So, if I have two groups in Shared services - one group for reports and another one for planning and this user being in both the groups how would it work?
Will it overlap at some point? Or will it be two different things since for once group we would provision him as a planner for an application and in the reporting group he would be playing some other role? I am a little confused on this as ultimately it is the same user.
Please let me know.
