Filter on the currently signed in user

Hi all,
I am trying to find out an easy way to filter on the current signed in user on a permission list.
I tried to use the [Me] but that did not work.
So the url I am using is:
https://site/Shared%20Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx?View={number}&FilterField1=Author&FilterValue1=what should I fill in here to make this work
On the part where is says "what should I fill in here to make this work", I have use the following without succes:
%user%
%username%
%name%
Does anyone know if this is possible and which value to use?
Kind regards,
André

Do these below steps
Go to your library, click on the column where you want to see filtering, click on that column, it will display all the data in a drop down, select a particular item, now you will filtered result
Now go to the address bar in browse, copy the URL in note pad and see how the URL is formed, now you can make out where and what you need to pass.

My Tasks View in my custom task list fails to display the tasks assigned to me (that is the currently logged in user)

Hi
I am new to sharepoint 2010.
I created a custom task list, where I have many tasks assigned to users (I had tasks assigned to me as well). I created a view as "My tasks "and having a filter as Assigned To is equal to [Me]. When I do that my view fails to show the
tasks assigned to me. This happens same with the Sharepoints 'My Tasks' view as well. I tested by creating some test tasks under my name and when I selected 'My Tasks' view no tasks are getting displayed.
Please help.
Thanks,
Gokulkumar.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to display the tasks assigned the current logged in user.
In my environment, if I used the System Account, My Task view didn’t display any tasks.
However , if I used other users except the System Account, My Task view could display current user tasks correctly.
I recommend to use other accounts except System Account to log in site. Then everything will work well.
Thank you for your understanding.

Get the current Logged on User on Mobile Client

Hi
I have to display the current logged in User of the Mobile client in my application. I think I have to use the User and UserManager API for that. But the thing is I am not able to instantiate the class to use the methods in it.I think I have to create a session object for using these classes, but in Session API I can see that I will have to create a new session and I want to use the current session.
Please tell me how to use these APIs and get the instance of User or UserManager.
Regards,
Priya

Hi Priya,
You can try with:
User user = UserManager.getInstance().getCurrentUser();
The User interface has methods to get relevant information (for ie. getName() or getFirstName()), take a look on the [javadocs|http://help.sap.com/javadocs/nwmobile/SP3/laptops/com/sap/ip/me/api/user/User.html]

Get username and password of the currently logged-in user in CRM and pass it to the plugin

Hi,
I am integrating CRM Online and SharePoint Online. Right now I am using Office365 trial version for both. Hence, the same username and password works for both.
I want to create sub-site in SharePoint on create of an entity record. Currently, I am passing the admin credentials. But, I want to pass the credentials of the currently logged-in user in CRM to the plugin which is getting executed on create of account entity.
So that I can then create sub-site in SharePoint using the current user credentials instead of admin credentials.
Is there way to achieve this?

Hello,
You would not be able to get login/password of currently logged in user. I believe usage of admin credentials is the best way to achieve your goal.

How to see the Currently loged on user and Locks using Enterpirse manager

Hello Everybody,
I want to see using enterpirse manager
*1.* the currently connected users
*2.* The locks held by users.
How to do this in Enterprise manager?

Hello Asif,
Your and Deepak suggessions do no t show the connected users. Instead If we use the following query,it will give us the names of all users that are currently connected.
SELECT SUBSTR(s.username,1,15) USERNAME,
SUBSTR(s.status,1,8) STATUS,
SUBSTR(s.server,1,10) SERVER,

Search Query that shows articles based on the current logged in users Office location

Hi,
I've set up a "news" channel that shows articles targeted to the current user. Basicly this on done by queryting the property of the custom "Office Location" termset.
My setup is something like the following in my term store:
The setup works perfect now. countries are not taggable so at the moment the user needs to choose City 1.. City 2 etc. for their articles which works fine since sometimes articles are also only targeted to cities and not countries.
Anyways now we have got 2 users in City 4. Here it makes no sense that articles should be targeted City 3 and City 4 in order to show articles to entire Country 2. Basicle what I want here is that if an article is targeted with City 3 it should also be shown
to City 4 users.
How is this archived best? I have tried to make the Countries available for tagging as well, however it not show anything since the user property of course still is City 3 or City 4.
Thanks for your time

Hi,
You can not get hold of the parent in your scenario. You want the parent of the tagged term in the user profile, and there is no built-in mechanism in search to get this. So as I mentioned you have to use JSOM to get the parent term, and then use that in
your owstaxIdOfficex0020Location:term query.
owstaxIdOfficex0020Location:{User.SPS-Location.IDWithChildren}
would be a valid query, except it won't help you much :)

Filter for the current month

Hi all,
Our client wants to see the report for the current month whenever he opens the report. We have a field called date which shows the date when PO was created in the format of mm/yyyy and mmm yy(JAN 2004 or JAN 2007. How should I create a filter report or Drill not Query to filter the data for the current month only.
Regards,
BOB

Bob,
filter the data for the current month only.
It will work best setting up a filter at the Universe level. You don't mention the database vendor, but for instance if it was SQL Server you could use something like this:
select convert(char(11),getdate(),101)
Essentially you'll take the current date and modify it to conform to the MMM/YYYY format....
thanks,

How do I check the current number of users connected to the application?

Hi there,
I would appreciate that you advise me on how to know how many users are accesing
an application I've got in production, powered by BEA WebLogic Server 6.1.
In the Administration console, I go to the specific server, and inside the tab "monitoring",
then "Performance", I've got some graphics showing the memory usage and throughput.
But, where do I see the number of actual connection to the application?
Thanks

I am pretty sure that WLS doesnt give you the type of monitoring you require. You
might have to check out one of the third party monitoring partners like Wiley or
Precise.I guess that depends on how you define 'how many users are accessing' an
application(s) - for example, 'OpenSessionsCurrentCount' can serve as a rough measure of
the number of users currently using the web application. or, number of threads + execute
queue length can give you an idea of current number of user requests executing/waiting
to be executed at any given time, etc. WebLogic does provide lots of useful monitoring
information, and the fact that it uses JMX makes obtaining this information very easy.
Having said that I would like to ask a couple of questions.
a) what is your app (EAR? EJB's WebApp?)
b) why do you want to know, meaning as soon as you know how many what is the next
thing you want to know/see?
Cheers

To connect the Current User Filter with the Excel Web Access

Hello,
I have uploaded an excel sheet which has data in Pivot table format into SharePoint site and then by using the current user filter I am trying to connect the filter (sharepoint profile user property) to a parameter in the excel sheet. I have defined one
of the pivot filter as the parameter. But all this, raises an error as below
"Unable to set one or more parameters. An error occurred while attempting to set one or more parameters in this workbook. As a result, none of the parameters has been set. Click OK to return to the workbook."
please assist.
Thanks & Regards
Thank You

I had referred this link but the example provided is related linking dashboard filters with the pivot table filter and i require to connect a current user filter.
The current user filter does not have any properties similar to what the dashboard filter have and we are not looking at using dashboard for our requirement.
Thank You

Testing a user group field with the current users group

I have a list which has a column which contains groups.
I want to create a view with a condition that the current users group should match the group of that field.
for testing against current date, its [today]
for testing against the current user, its [me]
is that a standard way of testing against the current user.
Tnx

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to create a standard view to filter on the current user’s group.
Per my knowledge, it’s by designed that the [Me] function is only supported to filter on the current user in a SharePoint list view.
If you want to filter on the current user group in the list view, I recommend that you can try to use the following methods to implement it in your environment.
1. Modify the query on a web part in SharePoint Designer:
http://www.makdeniz.com/how-to-filter-sharepoint-2010-tasks-which-are-assigned-to-you-and-the-group-your-are-member-of/
2. To create a custom web part filter that will dynamically filter your content.
http://christopherclementen.wordpress.com/2012/04/02/filter-a-list-dynamically/
Whatever your choice, the query will be the following:
<Or>
<Membership Type=”CurrentUserGroups”>
<FieldRef Name=”AssignedTo”/>
</Membership>
<Eq>
<FieldRef Name=”AssignedTo”/>
<Value Type=”Integer”>
<UserID/>
</Value>
</Eq>
</Or>

There are a few ways, for example declare an IBOutlet for the text field and then use it with NSControl's stringValue: method (inherited by the NSTextField), or bind the value of the text field to a property, etc. What have you got so far?

You can use a text string as the reference.
If you use the VISA Find Resource function, it will return an array of strings which you can index in your code, and store either the index, or store the string itself. You can even use strings like COM1 and COM2, assuming those ports are available.
The challenge is when you move from one machine to another, where the serial ports may be different on the other machine.

How to get the name of currently logged in user in the network

Hi all,
I want to know if there's a way to get the name of the currently logged in user in the network.
SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV','OS_USER') won't work for me because our users do not loggin in portal.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Brett

Hello, I had the same problem. Here is a smaller version to find the Group of the current User.
The VI get the members of a Group and match it with the Username.
Note :
If the User belongs to multiple Groups the the VI returns only the 1st Groupname
If the User belongs to no Group then the VI returns "unknown Group"
The VI is written with LabVIEW 2010 and TestStand 4.2.1

How get the current user system ?

I want to synchronize the portal with my database; but i need to know the system
current user to establish a relationship between UserCreator and UserCreated
in my database

As far as I know, you can't get that information directly
from air.
A strange and roundabout "hack" would be to get the string of
the user's documents folder or desktop using
"air.File.desktopDirectory" or "air.File.documentsDirectory" and
parse it to get the user's name.
This is, of course, VERY unreliable, but may be the only way
to get the currently logged in user's name.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
