[ Interactive viewer ] get user name in the launched report

egau

Hello,<br />
<br />
I m looking for a method that I can use to get the user that is connected to the interactive viewer in my report. This will enable me to limit access to some data or not regarding to the user profile.<br />
<br />
For exemple, my user is connected as the "user1", <br />
<br />
How to retrieve "user1" in my report?<br />
<br />
I saw things like that but I m not sure that it is really what I need ( and it doesn't work for now anyway, I only get "null" )<br />
<br />
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>function getLoggedInUsername() {
var myLoginName = null;
var request = reportContext.getHttpServletRequest();
if (request!=null) {
if (request.getRemoteUser()!=null) {
myLoginName = request.getRemoteUser();
}
}
return myLoginName;
}</pre>
<br />
Thanks in advance.<br />
<br />

If you are looking to get the user name during report generation (i.e. server side), the you should call reportContext.getAppContext().get("ServerUserName") in your report script.

If you are looking to get the user name client side, call getUserId() on the actuate JavaScript object.
