Member of A Group

Hi There,
I'm trying to write a portlet that displays a Group (selected in a user preference) and its members, along with certain attributes of those memebers. We're using the 5.02 EDK, which I remember hearing gives you great access to the Plumtree API, but we can't figure out how to use the PRC to get the list of users in a particular group.
Thanks!Karen

Hi Karen,
While you can look up groups, you can't look up the group membership with the PRC. You can find a sample of the server API call that will enable you to look up groups if you search the discussions.
Thanks,
ross

  • Not able to get group name by using memberof class, getting Total groups as 0 even I am member of that group.

  • Using member sorting and grouping with two reports sharing rows

    Hi!
    I have a problem with one report and I need some help or advise here.
    I have two dimensions with dynamic expansion in rows (PRODUCT, MATERIAL), and I use the option Member Sorting and Grouping at Member selector to obtain the total amount of PRODUCT group by PARENTH1:
    PRODUCT               MATERIAL          AMOUNT
    TOTAL PROD_A-X                                   100
    PROD_A_A             MAT1                          22
    PROD_A_B             MAT1                          50
    PROD_A_A             MAT2                          28 
    TOTAL PROD_B-X                                   120
    PROD_B_A             MAT1                          30
    PROD_B_A             MAT2                          50
    PROD_B_B             MAT2                          40
    This works fine if I only have one report, but I need to create another one sharing the row and page axis with the Default Report, when I do that the option Member Sorting and Grouping doesn't work. I really need to have two reports with shared rows and also the summation by PARENTH1, how can I do that?
    Thank you very much

  • BPM 11g - FYI task to send a copy to each member of a group

    In BPM 11g I am trying to send an FYI task to each member of a group. They should each get their own copy of the task so that it does not get removed from their inbox when the first person dismisses it.
    I was not successful in getting multiple copies of the task using FYI type even when multiple users were defined in the participant list. So, I changed the participant type to parallel. This was successful in sending mulitiple copies when I defined a participant list of hard coded users, but the process stopped and waited until at least one of the users dismissed it (so the FYI only behavior changed, but I can get around that with a parallel process flow).
    Still using parallel participant type, I have been trying to change from my hard coded list of users to a security group of users. If I set assignment to the group, only one task is created for the group. So, I have been trying to assign to users and use the expression ids:getUsersInGroup('LoanAnalyticGroup') to get the users in this group. I have tried several approaches to this expression but can't get it to work.
    Has anyone else successfully implemented sending tasks to all members of a group in 11g? Any advice?

    Hi all,
    We are also facing same issue.
    The function ids:getUsersInGroup doesnt return value.
    Even i imported identityservice.xsd and is_config .xsd and created variable using the *"users"* element of identityservice.xsd schema and assigned the value to this variable.
    But Audit always says
    *"XPath query string returns multiple nodes.*
    *According to BPEL4WS spec 1.1 section 14.3, The assign activity part and query should not return multipe nodes.*
    *Please check the BPEL source at line number "72" and verify the part and xpath query "*
    Help me to resolve this issue.

  • The 'not member of any group' smart group stopped working

    Since upgradng to Lion I notice that the Smart Group in Address book which I set to:
    "Card - is not member of - any group"
    has stopped working.
    I used to find this very useful since I like all my contacts to be assigned to one group, and this helps me spot any I missed when adding new contacts. However it is now always empty, even after I created a new contact and did not assign it to any group.
    Is this a known bug?
    If not, how do I go about bringing it to the attention of Apple?

    Useful script to extract LDAP based user posixGroup memberships information
    ===
    Assuming you are using posixGroup objectclass and memberUid attribute to
    store your membership information, you may find my shell script useful
    and handy.
    It works on Solaris LDAP Client with "ldapaddent" and "ldaplist"
    commands, and works against FDS, SUN DS or OpenLDAP.

  • Cannot Add user to CMC Group when they are a member of LDAP group

    On PreProduction Server CMC
    Softerra LDAP browser used to verify user is a member of LDAP group
    User does not show as a member of that group in the CMC
    Cannot add user to LDAP group showing in CMC, the same group shows the member in LDAP browser
    On Production Server CMC
    For kicks I logged into the CMC on Production and I found the user is correctly showing as a member of the Group
    Why doesn't the groups in CMC show what is actually showing in the LDAP browser?

    Hi,
    Check if you have also mapped in both servers the same groups. It might be that there are some groups missing in the Pre-prod.
    Also, try restarting the CMS. I have seen similar issues that are solved after forcing the recreation of the graph.
    If after the restart you still can't see the groups, check the mapping on the LDAP server. It might be that both servers do not use the same attribute mappings.

  • AB Smart Group "is not  member of" a group not working

    After having some trouble with AB over time (group members disappearing after some time syncing via MobileMe), I went through the 1700 cards one by one and deleted all the groups, and old cards, now am down to 1500, with a main Group of about 900. So simple math would say that there are 600 "not a member of" the main Group, or, #1, am I missing something there?
    I'd like to have my wife go through those that are not in the Group and delete those cards she doesn't need. So I tried a Smart Group with the one parameter that the Card is not a member of the Group. The result was 64 cards, not 600.
    So question #2 is what's going wrong here, am I misunderstanding or is this a flaw somehow?
    Thanks!

    As far as I know, Apple does not monitor these boards any more. Remind them here:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    I just sent them a note, as I'm sure thousands others have since this seems to be a known issue, but considering they've let it slide for at least six months now, it can't hurt to have more people contact them. In the mean time, see these articles to use AppleScript to find items in/not in various groups:

  • Can a non group or team member subscribe to group calendar

    So we have a group web calendar maintained by the managers.
    By using permissions in the web service, we can allow "authenticated users" to view the web based calendar.
    However if you are not a member of the group that publishes that web based calendar you can not subscribe to it using iCal.app. Only members of the group can successfully subscribe.
    We need to have some kind of restrictions to prevent the general public from viewing the calendar but would like for anyone employed by the company to subscribe using iCal so that events are up to date in iCal.
    Any thoughts on how to do this?
    I have fiddled with webDAV permissions and the SACL in Server Admin but have only been able to successfully restrict access to the web interface of the calendar. Non team members can view but not edit.

    It can't be done

  • ADS MA : the XML exported file (export to log file) doesn't export Distinguished Name in the attribute member for a group

    Hello,
    I am facing a weird issue during the export of a group to a log file (xml).
    I have configured my ADLDS management agent such as the export run profile exports data into a XML Ffile:
    Everything is fine in the XML, I see my new accounts, the attributes updated for accounts but for an unknown reason the group which should contains accounts does
    not contain the DN values.
    It contains the tags <dn-value> and <dn> but <dn> is empty
    e.g:
    <delta operation="update" dn="CN=GroupX,OU=Users,DC=ZZZZ">
     <anchor encoding="base64">XDSQDQDQ</anchor>
     <dn-attr name="member" operation="add" multivalued="true">
      <dn-value>
       <dn/>
      </dn-value>
      <dn-value>
       <dn/>
      </dn-value>
     </dn-attr>
    During the export, FIM updates the attribute "member" of the group:
    Member attribute seems to be caught by FIM during synchro profile and export profil bt not translates correctly in the final xml file.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for your reply.

    Thinking the same thing as David - sounds like a bug - but that's curious because I've never had a problem with the AD MA doing exactly the same thing, albeit with FIM R1 most recently.  What version of FIM are you using, and have you checked the
    release notes of any subsequent versions to see if any such issue is mentioned?

    Hi,
    You need to install the CodePlex solution(UsefulSPDWorkflowActivities_0.5.0.zip) from the following URL to the get custom activities in the SharePoint Designer.
    http://spdactivities.codeplex.com/
    Once you download, you will have setup instructions file, follow these instructions to install the solution (Installguide.txt).
    I would suggest you to use the SharePoint 2013 style workflow, as we need to implement latest one, may be 2010 style workflows will be removed with the latest version of SharePoint later.  And also other thing, you will not have to depend on the other
    solutions such as CodePlex
    Use the "Call Http Web Service" action and use the REST API to check whether the user is in within group.
    http://sharepoint/_api/SP.AppContextSite(@target)/web
    /getbyname('Approvers')/Users?$filter=Id eq " + CurrentItem.CreatedBy.ID + "
    ?@target='http://sharepoint'
