Secure Zone expiry by article value not by date

Hello Everyone,
We have been researching the BC tools along with Muse and love what we have found so far.
One request/feature we would like to explore...
Is it possible to calculate a members Secure Zone expiry by value rather than by date?
The reason I am asking is because a request has been raised that:
We apply a 'value/points' to a page/article (e.g. 2 points for a small article and 10 points for a long report).
When a member views the page, that 'value' is deducted from their 'total points' .
As a member uses up their pre purchased 'points' they would need to purchase more to see more articles in the secure zone.
Any comments on feasibility or other solutions are welcome.
Thanks in advance for any help in this matter.
Cheers
James

You can not do this in BC out of the box and 100% not through Muse.
You would have to build a combo of custom CRM fields for logged in users and possible API work to know total point values of content etc. But then if they are things like pages, blog, web apps the new API's are not for external API access just yet.

Update secure zone expiry dates with an import

We are trying to update Secure Zone Expiry dates for customers via an import but the problem is when we create a report for Users and Secure Zones there is no field for 'Username' and from what I understand if we leave this blank when importing then the information will be deleted.

What a process this has been! Has anyone else found it difficult or is it just me?
Maybe there is an easier way, I'd love to know if that is the case.
If anyone is interested this was my experience in updating the Secure Zone Expiry dates for customers.
Export a report of all members (Select Users and Secure Zones) and filter by Secure Zone.
Export a report of all customers and make sure to select the field 'Username' (This is not available in the Users and Secure Zone report, how crazy is that!).
In Excel, merge the 2 reports to get usernnames for the members. Here is a good tutorial on how to do this Vlookup Excel Best - YouTube or Merge two excel files using a common column - Super User
After merging and cleaning up the data, copy to an import template and save as csv file.
Make sure that the date format in your Expiry dates are in the correct format ie 20-Feb-2020 (check in a text editor as excel can be tricky).
Import via advanced contact import and make sure to select the secure zone in checklist below or the date will not change.
Easy isn't it, ha.
If Adobe are listening, please add the 'Username' field to the Users and Secure Zone reports, this would save a lot of work.

Setting a secure zone expiry date beyond the invoice date.

Is it possible to set the secure zone expiry date later than the invoice date? We're just looking at a way to let our members continue to have access for say 1 week after an invoice has failed so that they can log in and update their credit card details, possibly without seeing the 'access expired' message.
I've seen this behaviour on a site before, but I think that may have had something to do with the fact that it was a weekly membership site and that the invoices were already generated.
Cheers
Pat

Hey Gaurav,
This is for a monthly recurring subscription. What I was thinking was that if for example a user signed up on the 1st of the month that their SZ access expires on the 8th of the next month, but the invoice is still issued and paid on the 1st of the following month, and when the invoice is successfully paid the SZ access gets extended till the 8th of the next month - now that I've written it out like that I'm pretty sure this isn't possible, unless there is some setting that dev can see in the backend?

'ALL' variable value not bringing data for All Geo Units

Hi everyone!
In BEx 7.0 we can't use * as we did in 3.x to use all the variable values.
Running a query in BEx 7.0, when I am selecting a variable value for Geographic Unit I see the value 'ALL' under the single value list. I select this value but I get no data when I use it.
What checks can I do to know this is working properly?
Is this expected to work as it is was the * used in 3.x?
Any help provided will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

How to delete a Security Zone?

Hello,
I've deployed a certain PAR file with a certain Security Zone:
<property name="SecurityZone" value="roy.test.TestApp/DefaultSecurity">
</property>
Now I can see this security under System Config -> Permissions -> Security Zones as I should. My question is: In case I would like to delete it how do I do it?
Roy

Hi Roy,
It is a page that shows on one page all the portal components installed on your portal.
Access the page from the URL http://<server>:<port>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/PortalAnywhere.Go
From this you can see all the components, each displayed with a button to run it.
As I mentioned, you do not really need this page to run the SecurityZonesChecker. You can just use the URL http://<server>:<port>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.runtime.system.console.SecurityZonesChecker.
For the above links, make sure to put in your server name and port number.
Did you run the SecurityZonesChecker? Does it do what you need?
Hope all this helps.
Daniel

Include Secure Zone name in Order Workflow Notification

Hi All,
Hoping that someone can help me with a solution for the following:
We have a site that has a number of secure zones, each secure zone has an individual product catalogue assigned to it.
The problem we have is that when someone does an order from within the secure zone, the Workflow notification does not contain any information about which secure zone the order came from.
So I'm wondering if it is possible to write some code that will query what secure zone you are logged in to and have this as a hidden field on the Order page, to be included in the Workflow Notification.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
Cheers,
Emily

You can parse the user's securezone subscriptions out of {module_subscriptions,true,true,,true}, or you could look for an attribute unique to each catalogue, like <div data-catalogue="{{tag_somethingUnique">...catalogue template code...</div> plus jQuery('[data-catalogue]').data('catalogue');

"Secure Zone" is coming in Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro

In the incoming Lenovo flagship Vibe Z2 Pro(K920), we are introducing a new feature: Secure Zone
In order to protect sensitive application & data on the phone, users set up all kinds of lock screen. However, once lock screen is set, user must unlock the phone before using everything, including accessing insensitive app&data.
Open Zone & Secure Zone
In Vibe Z2 Pro, we have two zones: open zone and secure zone. Every app can be run in open zone while only trusted app will be run in secure zone to protect sensitive application & data for user. User can easily switch between open zone and secure zone by only "one click". In secure zone, it is safer, freer and easier.
How to use "Secure Zone"
Enable "Secure Zone"
Confiture "Secure Zone"
Switch Zone
Enjoy your safer, freer and easier app runtime in our "Secure Zone" for new flagship Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro.
Any comment about "Secure Zone" is welcome. Please feel free to contact us.

Hi
Did you had this issue from day 1 ?
Could be a software issue(the OS isn't installed correctly) or may be a hardware issue.
You should take it to a Lenovo service center for a check-up.Your warranty should cover this.
Really sorry about this.
Regards.

Deleting Secure Zones with Import

I have a client who gets their monthly membership updates from their National Organization. They get a list each month of adds / drops and changes to email addresses, etc. I need to figure out how to remove the drops list from their secure zone access.
I tried to import the Secure Zone Expiry in the format dd-mmm-yyyy but it didn't over write the field.
Suggestions? Thanks!

Hi,
If you are still having this problem, try format mm-dd-yyyy

Why do I get these messages "logged in but not to a specific secure zone"

Could anyone please explain why this messge would appear on the dashboard
'username' logged in but not to a specific secure zone
instead of
'username' logged in to Member Only Area secure zone
On this website, customers can only log on to a secure zone, and there is only one secure zone.
Thanks

Hi Mario,
Thank you for your response.
There are only two places users could log in, and none have ZoneID=-1
I tested both options with one of my own (non admin account) login, and none produced the above message.
action="/ZoneProcess.aspx?ZoneID=51&OID=5459507&OTYPE=1"
action="/ZoneProcess.aspx?ZoneID=51&OID=5459507&OTYPE=1"
both ZoneID's are the same
What is weird though, only one specific user account is generating that message.
At this stage the user has not complained about not being able to access his/her data yet.
My only concern was that this could be a possible security risk.
Thanks

Secure zone - ERROR: The payment gateway that you are using does not support recurring payments

So I want to sell a product that is made up of 4 downloadable products. (Totalling ~ 200meg)
The only way I have found is to sell membership to a secure area where the files are linked.
When I create the secure zone, I want a one-time-fee, but the system says:
"ERROR: The payment gateway that you are using does not support recurring payments"
The payment isn't recurring!
Micah

"Note that you have to use seamless gateway to process such payments."
Right, but that's the problem, we're not usiong a seamless gateway and thus we get the error. Again, the system should note that we're doing a one-time charge and not throw the seamless gateway error.

Deployment and application do not have matching security zones

Hello community,
I have developed an application in VSExpress 2013 (Win 8.1)) and I'm trying to deply using ClickOnce. I have set the options to:
1) Sign the ClickOnce manifests (checked)
2) Sign the assembly (checked)
3) On the security tab: "Enable ClickOnce security settings "(checked) and "This is a full trust application" selected
4) On the "Publish" tab: "The application is available offline as well..." Selected
The qeustion is that, when I publish the application based on this settings and run the "Setup.exe" on a Windows 7 machine I have the exception: "Deployment
and application do not have matching security zones"
Any idea on how to solve this?
Below is the error log:

Hello,
To clarify this issue, I would confirm with you the following tips.
>> 2) Sign the assembly (checked)
1. If you select the pfx file which is generated by Visual Studio for "Choose a strong name key file",
will it has the same result?
2. Where did you published your project? Local folder ,web server or any other?
3. If you create a simple sample with the same stesps, will it has the same issue? If so, you could share that sample with us.

Secure Zone password set (send log in details email) link not working for everyone

Hi Guys,
I have a site with three secure zones for different online programs. We're beginning to sell some programs and, because we aren't using a seemless gateway, we are manually subscribing them to the secure zones then clicking the 'Send log in details email' button. The email seems to be going out which is good. But, some clients can't click on the link to set their password. Nothing happens. Even if they copy and paste the link text into a browser window, still nothing.
Anybody know why this would be working for some people and not others. Could it be to do with cookies or email clients etc. We are at a loss and therefore have lost two sales so far (they asked for refunds) because they couldn't access their programs in the secure zone.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks LiamDilley for such a prompt reply. Currently my code looks like this:
...and your password is [<strong>{tag_password}</strong>]
Are you saying that I should be changing the '[<strong>{tag_password}</strong>]' to:
[<strong>,a href="{tag_password}>{tag_password}</a></strong>]
The thing is, most of the time the link text appears as a link, but not for everyone. Do you think this will fix it?

Extracting secure zone expiration date to be used for webapps

Hi all,
Is it possible to extract the secure zone expiration date and use it to set the expiration date for webapps? I see that the expiration date of secure zones can be extracted through the email section, and not other places. globals.user doesn't output the expiration date either.
All that I need is the number of days so that i can automatically put the day into the Set Webapp to Expire in __ days.
Unless the webapps automatically deletes itself when users are booted out of secure zones?

I've found the module which gives the expiry date of the secure zone ie. {module_subscriptions render="collection" collection="subscriptions"}.
The output is:
"moduleName": "subscriptions",
"moduleDescriptor": {
"templatePath": null,
"parameters": "render=\"collection\",collection=\"subscriptions\"",
"apiEndpoint": "/api/v3/subscriptions",
"objectType": "-1",
"objectId": "-1",
"adminUrl": ""
"items": [
"entityId": 11421300,
"zoneId": 51,
"zoneName": "Member Only Area",
"expiryDate": "2015-04-30T00:00:00",
"sellAccess": "false",
"costPerPeriod": 0.0,
"cycleType": ""
"params": {
"render": "collection",
"collection": "subscriptions"
When I use {{subscriptions.items.expiryDate}}, it doesnt output any value. I suspect that this is due to the [] encasing the items sub-information. How can I extract this information for use?
