How to fetch user specific data from View?

Question

Hi
I have a requirement in which I need to display table data specific to Session_user only. Scenario is if user belongs to a specific region he should be able to see data related to that specific region only.
I am thinking of passing session_user name in view query but do not know whether it's possible or not.If possible how to do this.
What is the best way to achieve it?
Thanks

Hello
Vibzz,
First thing is that you need to implement security in your application, if you configured security then, Take a session scope bean in your un bounded task flow
inside that session bean , you can get the information from security context, then write a static block inside your session bean and modify the fallowing code according to your requirement
ADFContext adfc=ADFContext.getCurrent();// get the context instance
SecurityContext securityContext=adfc.getSecurityContext();// instantiate the SecurityContext
String username=securityContext.getUserName(); // returns the username from the security Context who are currently logged in
Once you written this code just assign this username to session scope variable
Map sessionScope =
(Map)ADFContext.getCurrent().getSessionScope().put("UserName", username);
So that the username with the key UserName will be available throughout your session
and Apply in where clause according to the user logged in, or else you may directly use
adf.context.securityContext.userName at the bind variable what ever you used inside your view criteria.
