Retrieving user detail, group name for all users

Question

Hi,
How can I retrieve User name, email, authentication, user group name
for all users using SDK.
It is possible to create this report in webi or CR?
Thank you for reply,
Gregor

Use the following code to retrieve this information:
IInfoObjects users = oInfoStore.query("select * from ci_systemobjects where si_kind='user'");
for (int i=0; i<users.size(); i++)
         IUser user = (IUser)users.get(i);
         // user.getTitle(); for user name
         // user.getFullName(); for user's full name
         //  user.getEmailAddress(); for user's email address
         //  for authentication type:
         IUserAliases alises = user.getAliases();
         for(int j=0; j<aliases.size();j++)
                   IUserAlias alias = alises.get(j);
                   // alias.getAuthentication() for authentication associated with this alias, since same user can have more than 1 authentication. e.g. Enterprise and Ldap.
         // for user group memberships:
         java.util.Set groups = user.getGroups();        
         // the groups Set object will contain SI_ID of all the user groups that this uses is member of. You need to query by the SI_ID of the usergroup to get the group names.
//  e.g.
//    oInfoStore.query("select si_id, si_name from ci_systemobjects where si_kind='usergroup' and si_id in (a,b,c....)");
where a,b,c are the SI_IDs of the usergroups.
To create a report based on the above fetched data, there are several methods such as:
you can use Java resultset where in you create the report structure in designer and push the data at runtime using java result set objects. Another way is to push this info in Excel or Access and design your report based on that excel\access.
