RTMF apis to retrieve logged in users in portal

Hi Experts
Can anyone tell me if there is any RTC api available that can be used in webdynpro java to fectch the list of logged in users in the portal.
Also if the apis are not available in webdynpro java, can these be used in portal components?
Thanks
Siva

Hi,
You should read the wiki : [List of logged on users in the Portal |http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/Listofloggedonusersinthe+Portal]

Retrieve log on user's name in class SimpleUICommand

Hi everyone, I would like to retrieve current log on user name in the method execute(IScreenflowData sfd) in class SimpleUICommand, found at https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/kmc/Implementing%20Flexible%20UI%20One-Step-Screenflow.article.
Since there is no request to work with so I tried the following code
try {
String userName = AccessContextFactory.getInstance().getContext().getUser().getEmail();
catch (ContextUnavailableException e)
PortalRuntime.getLogger().severe("ContextUnavailableException");
e.printStackTrace();
But I got ContextUnavailableException in the log.
How can I retrieve log on user name in this case? Is it a general method to do this in case there is no request ?
Thanks for reply.
Best regards.
Wang

Hi Wang,
without having tested it, it seems that the framework calls <i>setTargetParameters</i> (hopefully before <i>execute(IScreenflowData sfd)</i> is called). If this is the case, you'll have the IResourceContext at hand. From this you can retrieve the user.
Hope it helps

OIM11gr2 - How to get currently logged in user details using oim api

Hi All,
I have a requirement to retrieve currently logged in users profile in the process adapter.
I have tried with getSelfProfile in tcUserOperation and also ContextManager.getOIMUser API's however, in both the cases i am getting xelsysadm details only.
Also as know request details in Process task mapping doesnot work for OIM11g onwards (its returning column not found exception )
DOes any one has idea how to achieve this.
PS. - i am using platform to retrieve API's.
Thanks & Regards

You can get the logged in user name using the below java code:
ADFContext adfCtx = ADFContext.getCurrent();
SecurityContext secCntx = adfCtx.getSecurityContext();
String user = secCntx.getUserPrincipal().getName();

Logged in user ID retrieval irrespective of UME?

Hi,
I have found below code which can retrieve currently logged in user and it's working fine. Reading the code I assume this will only work if the user datasource is ABAP, will the below code work if we change to LDAP as user datasource? If not, is there a generic coding which can be used to retrieve logged in userid irrespective of user datasource? We are currently using ABAP as datasource, but we will be moving to LDAP soon, so I'm writing a WD app which needs to work in both situation.
String strUserName = null;
     try {
          IWDClientUser wdClientUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
          IUser sapUser = wdClientUser..getSAPUser();
          if (sapUser != null) {
               IUserAccount[] acct = sapUser.getUserAccounts();
               if (acct[0] != null) {
                    strUserName = acct[0].getDisplayName();
     } catch (WDUMException e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
     } catch (UMException e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
     return(strUserName);

I found this WIKI and thread
retriving user details from user rofile in portal database
/people/sap.user72/blog/2005/06/05/user-management-api-in-webdynpro
Which says that below code
IUser iUser = user.getSAPUser();
getSAPUser() method, though it says SAP User it's not direct retireval from ABAP, it's from SAP Web App Server user which could be any datasource (R/3, LDAP, Portal UME).
If you read in the blog right at the bottom in the user comments sections you will find clarification on getSAPUser and portal user. This answers my question that I can use user.getSAPUser() method irrespective of user datasource(r/3, LDAP, UME).
If my understanding is wrong please advise. I'm marking this thread answered.

How to retrieve the username of the logged in user

Hi, I've been looking for a possibility retrieve some user data like the username of the currently logged in user since yesterday but could not find anything proper. I'm relatively new to APEX. Could someone perhaps point me to an easy-to-understand document? I would be glad if it would also cover the basic of authentication and authorization schemes.

Hi, thanks for your reply. I've already changed my handle but the system said that it would take about one hour for the change to be done.
Actually I have the following situation. I have a table that associates IDs to names. The names are the same as the user names of the users in APEX. On an APEX-Page I have a select-box that lists all available IDs. What I want to do is to automatically pre-select the ID of the currently logged in user. So I have created an authentication scheme as described in the help using following options:
Based on a pre-configured scheme from the gallery > Show Login Page and Use Application Express Account Credentials
And then I made the new authentication scheme the application's current scheme. Then I went to the page definition and created a new process, selecting "On Load - After Regions" as "Process Point", and entered the following source:
declare
nID number;
begin
:P2_TEMP := :APP_USER; -- this is just for debug purposes
select b.ID into nID from MYTABLE b where b.NAME = :APP_USER;
:P2_ID := nID;
exception
when others then
null;
end;
But it doesn't work. Since the text field P2_TEMP stays empty I believe I am doing something wrong with APP_USER. Anybody who can help me with that?

Retrieving information about the logged in user in Power BI for O365

I am trying to retrieve the email of the current logged in user so i can pass it into a query to my sql server which then adjusts the data based on who is viewing a power bi dashboard. If anyone knows a way to grab that information or even the url that
the file has, then i can parse out its location and change my data based on that as well.

Currently row level security is not supported in Power BI.

An error occurred during olap API metadata retrieval. This is probably caus

this is what i have done so far. i really nead some help asap!!!
1. Install Oracle 9i Release 2 (9.2.0.1) Enterprise Edition with the General purpose database configuration (Data warehouse works as well). At the end of the installation I chose the password management button to change passwords for the few necessary accounts: SYS, SYSTEM, OLAPSYS, SH.
2. Download the p3948480_9206_WINNT.zip from metalink, the 9.2.0.6 patchset
3. Shut down any existing Oracle9i database instances with normal or immediate priority. Stop all listener and other services running in the Oracle home directory where you want to install the patch set.
4. unzip the content of thepatch to a temp directory
5. start setup.exe under the temp directory (it will start the Oracle Universal installer 10.1.0.3)
6. install the patchset to your Oracle home, selecting the source in the temp_dir\stage\products.jar file
7. review carefully the post-installation tasks for the patchset:
Review the following sections before upgrading a database (quote from the patchset html readme):
8.2.1.1If JServer is part of the installation ensure that there is at least 10 MB of free space allocated to the SYSTEM tablespace.
8.2.1.2 Check XDB Tablespace Size
For RAC installations, ensure that there is at least 50 MB of free space allocated to the XDB tablespace.
8.2.1.3 Set the SHARED_POOL_SIZE and JAVA_POOL_SIZE Initialization Parameters
Set the value of the SHARED_POOL_SIZE and the JAVA_POOL_SIZE initialization parameters as follows:
Start the database:
SQL> STARTUP
If necessary, enter the following command to determine whether the system uses an initialization parameter file (initsid.ora) or a server parameter file (spfiledbname.ora):
SQL> SHOW PARAMETER PFILE;
This command displays the name and location of the server parameter file or the initialization parameter file.
Determine the current values of these parameters:
SQL> SHOW PARAMETER SHARED_POOL_SIZE
SQL> SHOW PARAMETER JAVA_POOL_SIZE
If the system is using a server parameter file:
If necessary, set the value of the SHARED_POOL_SIZE initialization parameter to at least 150 MB:
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET SHARED_POOL_SIZE='150M' SCOPE=spfile;
If necessary, set the value of the JAVA_POOL_SIZE initialization parameter to at least 150 MB:
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET JAVA_POOL_SIZE='150M' SCOPE=spfile;
If the system uses an initialization parameter file, if necessary, change the values of the SHARED_POOL_SIZE and the JAVA_POOL_SIZE initialization parameters to at least 150 MB in the initialization parameter file (initsid.ora).
Shut down the database:
SQL> SHUTDOWN
8.2.2 Upgrade the Database
After you install the patch set, you must complete the following steps on every database associated with the upgraded Oracle home:
Log on as a member of the Administrators group to the computer where the Oracle components are installed.
Use SQL*Plus to login to the database as the SYS user with SYSDBA privileges:
sqlplus /NOLOG
CONNECT SYS/password AS SYSDBA
Enter the following SQL*Plus commands:
SQL> STARTUP MIGRATE
SQL> SPOOL patch.log
SQL> @ORACLE_BASE\ORACLE_HOME\rdbms\admin\catpatch.sql
SQL> SPOOL OFF
Restart the database:
SQL> SHUTDOWN
SQL> STARTUP
Run the utlrp.sql script to recompile all invalid PL/SQL packages now instead of when the packages are accessed for the first time. This step is optional but recommended.
SQL> @ORACLE_BASE\ORACLE_HOME\rdbms\admin\utlrp.sql
12. Install JDeveloper 9.0.4 (download it from OTN and just unzip it in a directory ... it doesn't require an oracle home)
13. Install BI Beans 9.0.4 (download it from OTN as well), run the setup.exe that comes with it and in the destination oracle home select the directory where you installed JDeveloper and give an oracle home name to it)
14. Install the BIBDEMO schema:
Create a directory on the computer that is running the Oracle9i database. This install_home directory is the location to which you will upload the data files that are required to build the BIBDEMO schema.
On the computer where BI Beans is installed, locate the bibeans_home\bibdemo_schema folder (where bibeans_home is the root folder of your BI Beans installation). Copy all of the files found in this folder to the install_home folder on your server machine.
Open a DOS prompt and navigate to the install_home folder.
Run bibdemo.bat to install the schema, using the following syntax:
bibdemo.bat <path to Oracle database files >
For example, for an instance named my9iService, enter the following:
bibdemo.bat D:\OraHome1\oradata\my9iService
You are prompted for the password for the sys as sysdba user.
The script takes approximately 15 minutes to run, depending on the machine specifications. It is normal to see some error messages while the script is running. In addition, when materialized views are being created in the database, the script will appear to stop; this is also normal. A clear message will tell you when the script has completed.
The log files (*.log) that are generated by the installation script are stored in the folder from which you ran the script.
Here's what
bi_checkconfig.bat -h ana -po 1521 -sid proiect -u bibdemo -p bibdemo -q

WHAT AM I MISSING? SHOULD I USE AW MANAGER? OR DO I NEED TO CREATE AN AMNALITIC WORKSPACE???
WHAT ARE THE STEPS TO CREATE A GOOD METADATA????

Hi,
The issue here is if the whole catalog is corrupt or just one schema. So to try and determine the status of the catalog I would try:
1) Using OEM remove all the objects you created
2) I presume you created your database using the Database Configuration Assistant? You should have used the warehouse template
3) Make sure the following accounts are unlocked and also not expired : SH, OLAPSYS
4) Make sure the password for the SH schema is SH
5) Make sure the password for the OLAPSYS account is manager
6) Install the BIBDEMO schema that is shipped with BI Beans. This in the jdev_home/bibeans/bibdemo_schema
The installation process will remove SH schema from the OLAP catalog.
7)Once this is installed use JDeveloper to see if you can create a crosstab or graph.
8) If the BIBDEMO schema works try creating your new schemas one at a time.
9) Make sure the if you define the a dimension as type time it has END_DATE (column type DATE) and TIME_SPAN (column type number) defined. Otherwise don't define the dimension as type time.
Hope this helps

Read logged in user-works in Delphi7 but not in Delphi 2010

Hi all
I have some code I wrote a while back in Delphi 7 - simple program to read a currently logged in user IDs, read available class definitions, read some user attributes - relatively simple stuff. I am now trying to move to Delphi 2010 and the very same code that works on Delphi 7 does NOT work on Delphi 2010. The code was updated to compile and run on Delphi 2010, so it executes with no errors.
I am using NWDSWhoAmI to get the currently logged in user name and NWDSRead to retrieve user attribute values. On Delphi 7, the code works, all API return "Success" and return correct values. In Delphi 2010, all APIs return "Success" but the code act as if I am not logged in - the username returned is "[Public]" and when I try reading attribute values I get $8884 - RESOLVE SVC FAILED (also may mean I am not authenticated to the NDS tree).
The environment is XP and Novell Client 4.91 on the workstation, NW6.5 on the server (one sever tree). The code runs under the currently logged in user with full admin rights in the tree and Novell Client configuration on both workstations is identical. Any ideas on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Vlad

Vlad,
since both Delphi versions go through the same DLLs it must be a difference
in the code - possibly different variable implementation as 16/32 bit or
signed/unsigned vars
It is good practice to use the NWLibrary defined variable types instead of
native Delphi types.
I have successfully used the same sources in Delphi 4, 5, 6, and 2010
Try my old samples:
http://support.novell.com/techcenter...a20020203.html and my Delphi
version independent Delphi libraries

Passing customer id(logged in user) to BAPI

Hi,
I am creating a sales order application where in i have to pass the user id (customer logged in through portal) .
I have made the MODEL RFC as ticket, and meta data as user id password where i have passed the service user and password.
Now my problem is that there will be 'N' customer ids in Portal but we are not creating any customer ids in SAP ECC. We are planning to pass the user id of portal logged in user to ECC (which will be customer id) and get the data based on the customer id passed.
Question is how do i pass customer id to BAPI, ? Do i have to make the MODEL JCO as user/password or ticket should be fine as i am getting information for only customer logged in Portal ?
How and where do i write the the following piece of code ? Should it be in wdDo init() or in the execute method of Controller ?
try{
IUser user = WDClientUser.getLoggedInClientUser().getSAPUser();
IUserAccount[] acct = user.getUserAccounts();
if(acct[0] != null)
String strUserid = acct[0].getLogonUid();
customer=strUserid.substring(0,strUserid.indexOf("."));
if(customer.equalsIgnoreCase(customer))
wdContext.currentYOURRFC_InputElement().setCustomer(customer);
}catch(Exception ex)
ex.getMessage();
Should the above code be in the component controller before i execute the BAPI ?
your help is appreciated.
Regards
PN

Hi Portal Newbie,
Your tickets and userid/password works as following:
Tickets: When u select SAP logon ticket (SLT), EP generates a ticket with the user id of the logged in user, attached to the ticket. Now when it reaches R/3 it will check for the same user id. If no such user id is exits it will throw an error. To over come this u can define a reference system where u can do the user mapping.
UIDPD: When u select this option u have to manually enter the user id and password in JCo. So when a EP user logs in the UID and password mentioned in JCo will be passed, not the EP user id, and R/3 will look for that user and execute the BAPI. And i guess u dont want that.
Solution:
As far as i have understood u dont want the same number of users in EP and R/3, (might be a licensing issue) and want only a few user IDs in R/3.
1. Select UIDPD in JCo, and in your BAPI add another field like "user_id" through which u can send the user id to R/3 and execute a query which shall return the value corresponding to that particular user. [issue: there is a limit to the JCo connections created for a user.] Also there is an api to handle JCo connection in webdynpro. There u can set the user id, password and client number. But here also the user id that you set should be present in R/3.
2. Select SLT in JCo and configure a reference system. You have to perform user mapping for every user. Now when a user logs in the ticket will contain the user id of EP and also the one u have mapped, ie the R/3 user. Make sure the R/3 user id exists in R/3. Now the sy-unam in BAPI will contain the R/3 user id. I guess there is an option to retrieve the EP user id from the ticket, but im not sure.
In your kind of scenario its always recommended to have same number of user ids in EP and R/3. If user names are same then there is no need to configure reference system.
Regards,
Piyush.
ps: reference system is just a system that we create in EP but in UME settings we have to specify this system as the reference system.

Sharepoint 2013 delivers documents through IIS too good! Need to restrict by logged in user

I have a Sharepoint 2013 app that lets external users (https://) pull data from SQL to create links on the page that the user can click on to get documents to pop-up in the browser so they can view/save them. The page sends the user's ID as a parameter
and the stored proc uses that to return only the documents that user is allowed to see. Took forever to figure out... looks great... my employer is going to be impressed and save money... yada, yada yada! Problem is: If you knew the name
of a directory on the mapped location and knew the filename (somehow), and you had a login that got you to the site, you could successfully put that address in your address bar and the document would come up! That's a bad thing! I need to only
let users see documents they have access to.
I have been playing with the app pool settings and advanced settings for the sub-site, but it still lets me pull items that the logged-in user doesn't have permissions on the server to get to. I haven't been able to prove it, but I suspect that IIS
is sending another login credential to the directory to retrieve the file... something like "admin" or something that can have wider access.
Here is my setup: I have a directory on another server that is mapped to the Sharepoint Server box. I have a Virtual Directory that points to that mapped drive. My Sharepoint Page is on a site of its own and is called with the URL "https://reportcenter.<company
name>.com". There is only one page on the site. When the page opens it provides links to documents on the Virtual Directory. When you click on any of them the files appear in the browser just fine. Sharepoint is running on a
Windows 2012 R2 Standard OS. The test user I am using is "Client1" and they are a member of the "SP_Clients" group which is not a member of anything else in Active Directory. In the file directory I went to the Share list and
made sure my test user and the SP_Clients group is not in the list... if the system tried to use Client1 there is no way they should get access.
Any thoughts on what I can do to stop Clients from getting to files they shouldn't be?

Thank you for your question and reply.
No, the identity is not passed as a URL property. The way it works is that SP verifies the user and sends them to the default page after they sign-in. Once there, the page evaluates the UserID value and that values is passed to a stored procedure
as a parameter. The user can't get to the page unless they are verified by SP, they can't somehow go around this.
Now, once the page loads they click on one of files they wish to see (a link on the page that was created from the results of the stored procedure call). The link points to a virtual directory setup in IIS that points to a mapped drive where the files
are located. The security on the files is set on the directories in their actual location. I just need SP to pass the user's ID to the file directory and check the sharing rights on the file to see if this user has rights to get it. It seems
like SP is passing some other credential (probably SP_Admin, or Admin or something) which has the ability to read the file and therefore pass it back to the screen.
I can't put the documents in SharePoint... they have to be in a file directory. The reason is that we have an elaborate program that runs every month to create these files and places them in the correct directories. Somehow changing that application
to create the files and place them programmatically in a SharePoint directory is beyond the scope of the project. Under the circumstances, it would be much simpler to just provide the user a list of the documents they have access to and have them click
on a link on a page and have the document appear in their browser. Everything actually works, but I just have this last piece where SP is not 'telling' the file directory the UserID of the logged in user and therefore all the documents are available.
All that needs to be done, is to make sure the userID is passed to the file directory so it can be checked against the security there to see if the user can have the file or not.
I hope that makes sense. I look forward to hearing back from you with your thoughts on this and how this can be accomplished.
Thanks,
Scott

Hi,
You can wirte the following code to get the logged in user's ID
try {
      IWDClientUser wdClientUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
      IUser sapUser = wdClientUser.getSAPUser();
      IUserAccount[] acct = sapUser.getUserAccounts();
      String str = acct[0].getDisplayName();
      wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("user "+ str);
     } catch (WDUMException e) {
     // TODO Auto-generated catch block
     e.printStackTrace();
     } catch (UMException e) {
     // TODO Auto-generated catch block
     e.printStackTrace();
You need security api for using it make sure that is present.

Identity User( Find Current Logged in User) Windows Forms

I have implemented dummy code for logging in to a windows Forms Application using Identity (Owin Auth). part of my code is as follows:
private bool validateuser()
bool isAuthorised = false;
Login1 log = new Login1();
if (DialogResult.OK == log.ShowDialog())
Splasher.Show(typeof(frmSplash));
userC = log.usernameTextBox.Text;
PassC = log.passwordTextBox.Text;
if (userC == "" || PassC == "")
count++;
//isAuthorised = false;
if (count > 0) log.LoginStatus.Text = "Empty passwords or usernames are not allowed. please try again";
if (count == 2) MessageBox.Show("You have one try remaining");
if (count == 3) { MessageBox.Show("You have exosted your tries application will now close"); Application.Exit(); }
validateuser();
else
var userStore = new UserStore<IdentityUser>();
var userManager = new UserManager<IdentityUser>(userStore);
var user = userManager.Find(userC, PassC);
if (user != null)
var userIdentity = userManager.CreateIdentity(user, DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie);
isAuthorised = userIdentity.IsAuthenticated;
userIdentity.AddClaim(new Claim("FullName", user.UserName));
userIdentity.AddClaim(new Claim("User_Id", user.Id));
return isAuthorised;
else
count++;
//Application.Exit();
if (count > 0) log.LoginStatus.Text = "You may have entered a wrong password or username. Please try again";
if (count == 2) MessageBox.Show("You have one try remaining");
if (count == 3) { MessageBox.Show("You have exosted your tries, application will now close"); Application.Exit(); }
validateuser();
count = 0;
return isAuthorised;
When the code works fine and is able to authenticate from the database. In the current form, I'm able to get the current user by using user.UserName or id by using user.Id
How do I get to retrieve the name or Id of the current logged in user from another form. Please Help
Thanks

Hi,
Looks from Aram's code, I found a blog from Leandro Boffi.
http://leandrob.com/2012/02/claims-identity-c-4-0-dynamics/
Some similar code like Aram's. You should install
Windows Identity Foundation and the companion
WIF SDK
