Retrieving User details

Hi,
I am using the wwsec_api.person_info function passing in a user id to retrieve a portal users details. I am able to retrieve details such as first name, last name , email address. I need to get the 'Department' that the user is in but can't seem to retrieve this. An ideas on how to do this?
Also within portal, if i edit a users details and put entries into telephone, department, first name etc and then look in the view wwsec_person, none of these details are recorded against the specific user. Is this normal?
Any help would be appriecated.

These are all stored within the LDAP. You can use dbms_ldap calls to retrieve them, or select from the ODS.DS_ATTRSTORE table directly where attname is the attribute you are looking for.

Retrieving user detail, group name for all users

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.

Pl sql procedure to retrieve user details based on the input

hi,
I am looking for an example which will retrieve the data based on what he requests. I mean: the user types in an request_name, the procedure will check if the request_name already exists. If yes, then it will retrieve the request_name and other columns from the table R. Else it will create a new request by adding request_name and other details to the table.
hope this is clear some1 could help me
thanks

If defaults are set for the request table fields and you can get by inserting only the request_name field, perhaps something like the below would work?
T_REQUEST is the table, REQUEST_NAME is the field you mentioned. If the function finds the record, it returns it as a record. If it doesn't, it inserts a blank record with REQUEST_NAME populated:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION REQUEST_LOOKUP
( V_REQUEST_NAME IN T_REQUEST.REQUEST_NAME%TYPE )
RETURN T_REQUEST%ROWTYPE
AS
    R_REQUEST T_REQUEST%ROWTYPE;
    CURSOR C_REQUEST IS
        SELECT *
        FROM T_REQUEST
     WHERE REQUEST_NAME = V_REQUEST_NAME;
BEGIN
    OPEN C_REQUEST;
        IF C_REQUEST%NOTFOUND
        THEN
            INSERT INTO T_REQUEST (REQUEST_NAME)
            VALUES (V_REQUEST_NAME);
     ELSE
            FETCH C_REQUEST INTO R_REQUEST;
            RETURN R_REQUEST;
     END IF;
    CLOSE C_REQUEST;
END REQUEST_LOOKUP;

OBIEE 11g Active Directory Presentation Service Error retrieving user

Hi Team,
It was a great help from all of you on our OBIEE learnings.
I recently configured Microsoft AD on Weblogic rather than RPD. But felt like I am in a desert of helplessness due to the complicated and lengthy documents and settings :(
Still when I configured everything and logged in to presentation services using AD Credentials, observed following error!

You need a user to be present in your Active Directory Base DN that will be used as the BISystemUser. You will either have to create this user in AD or use an existing AD user and then specify its credentials in Enterprise Manager (expand Weblogic Domain > bifoundation_domain (right click) > Security > Credentials). You will need to set system.user credential under oracle.bi.system map. Make sure your AD user's password never expires or you will run into problems in a few weeks time!

Script to get the user details by running a view from powershell

Hi,
I have a use-case of getting the list of users, who got modified in last one week or so. There was no direct way of getting the results as office-365 doesn't have the option. As i posted in a forum they suggested to use view based for retrieving
the user details. I was able to get some user details through UI. When i asked for the option of getting it from powershell they suggested to post in this forum. Link on the question posted in forum is

Hi,
our requirement is to edit and save the logged in user details retrieved from iusercontext.
Please anyone help me out.

Hello,
You can change details of the user via IUserMaint interface.
for example this is how you change the language of the user :
IUserMaint Muser = uf.getMutableUser(userUniqueid);
boolean res = Muser.setLocale(new Locale("en"));
Muser.commit();
You can find details about IUserMaint in [http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/SPS09/se/com/sap/security/api/IUserMaint.html]

Hello electrazy,
This is not possible from within the IDK. The best you can get are the Extended Data properties that are associated with the user object in the Global Property Map. If you want to get user information like the authentication name and the login name, you'll have to use the Portal Server API or directly query the database.

Update Customer User Details Form

I'm pretty new to BC so hope someone can help me out with this.
I'm wanting to create a Secure Login page that allows my customers to login and update their Account details that they have provided with a (Custom Registration form), due to some customer fields
My problem is that the Secure Zone is setup fine, however under Site Modules --> SecureZones --> Update User Details form does not have the fields which I need it to update from the Customer Registration Form.
What I've done is below:
1. Setup a secure login page
2. Upon login it is redirected to the Update Details page
3. Within the Update Details page, I have inserted the module "Update User Details form"
However I'm not sure how to customize the form in order for it to update/edit information retrieved from other forms.
Hope someone can help. Thanks!

Hey there,
You can, what your probably missing is selecting the dropdown where you choose to include the CRM data.

Portal user details

HI
I need to develop a web dynpro application which gives the details of the portal user details who logs into portal
Can anyone provide me the code how to fetch the details of the users who logs into portal
thanks in advance

Hi,
Make sure that your WebDynpro Applications Authentication property is set to True.
To get Portal User Details you can use the following UME Api's
try
IWDClientUser user = WDClientUser.getLoggedInClientUser();
IUser loggedInUser = user.getSAPUser();
catch(UMException ume)
//do something
this Iuser objects holds all the Properties of Portal User Except its Password.
and You can retrieve it like this
loggedInUser.getFullName();
if you know the Logon id of Portal User you can Also get the IUser object like this:--
IUser user = UMFactory.getUserByLogonId("Administrator");
To use UME APIS in Webdynpro you have to refer com.sap.security.api.jar in the Build path of your WebDynpro Application.
If You Are Using NWDI then you have to use the com.sap.security.api.sda lib Dc available in NWDI for Compilation in WD DC
Hope this Help.
Regards,
Siddharth

Error retrieving user by identity

Hi guys,
I have some weird issue.
I started to have issues with some user which is supposed to connect to Planning 9.3.1. The user is not provisioned directly; it is a member of 2 groups which are provisioned.
There are other users in those 2 groups and they have no similar problems. It started when I was able to connect to planning, but wasn’t able to see HBRs. I tried deprovisioning, deactivating, etc., it didn’t help. Then I deleted the user and created it again. From that point when I try to connect to HyperionPlanning I receive the following error message:
Failed to sync with user provisioning. Check Planning log for details
I started Planning in console mode and at the time of login I receive the following message:
Error retrieving user by identity
Embedded HBR initialized.
com.hyperion.planning.DuplicateUserException: Another user with the name ANT2122
already exists.
It looks like traces of the deleted user stuck in the repository. Do you know how can I fix it/clear it up?
Thanks a lot,
Dmitry

Ok, i cleared the planning repository from that user, more specifically the following tables:
HSP_GROUP
HSP_USERSINGROUP
HSP_USERS
HSP_OBJECT
HSP_USER_PREFS
HSP_MRU_MEMBERS
HSP_ACCESS_CONTROL
restarted the services and it came back to work.
