Recovering a Custom Attribute from User Profile

Douglas_Alencar

Hi,

I am trying to recover a custom attribute ("Nucleo") from user profile but the value is always null...

Could you give me a help?

my code is here:

IKMObject object = env.getTarget();

IKMSession sess = env.getSession();

IKMUser usr = sess.getUserFromUserID(env.getTarget().getCreator().getUserID(), "default_domain", "prodesp");

String idNucleo = usr.getCustomAttributeValue("Nucleo");

What is the possible problem? .

thanks in advance,

Douglas/Paulo.

User profile attributes are not stored on the user object, so you would need to call usr.getUserProfile() and then get the attribute from the user profile.

Hi Curtis,

As you said, I get userProfile following your direction, and I printed after that:

the code is:

IKMUser usr = sess.getUserFromUserID(env.getTarget().getCreator().getUserID(), "default_domain", "prodesp");

System.out.println("-- CURTIS -- usr.getCustomAttributeValue(Nucleo) = " + usr.getUserProfile().getCustomAttributeValue("Nucleo"));

System.out.println("-- CURTIS -- usr.getCustomAttributeValue(Nucleo) = " + usr.getUserProfile().getCustomAttribute("Nucleo"));

--------------------------

And I got:

[Feb 15, 2013 9:05:04 AM (bgtask-queue-default-listener-1_156)]: -- CURTIS -- usr.getCustomAttributeValue(Nucleo) = null

Is the “Nucleo” custom attribute on the user profile? Can you confirm via the collab UI?

Hi Curtis,

I added this customattribute "Nucleo" with BizConsole on the userprofile. But I dont see this attribute in the Collab UI. What I need to do to this attibute to be efective? thanks again

Sandhya_Agarwal

These are user profile attributes and not custom attributes and must be fetched by using the getAttributeValue() method, instead of the getCustomAttributeValue() method.

Thanks,

Sandhya

Hi Sandhya,

I put the get attribute as you said, but, I got null ... I am sure that this field has a value, but I still get a null value...

my code:

IKMObject object = env.getTarget();

IKMSession sess = env.getSession();

IKMUser usr = sess.getUserFromUserID(env.getTarget().getCreator().getUserID());

System.out.println("-- SANDHYA -- usr.getAttributeValue(Nucleo) = " + usr.getUserProfile().getAttributeValue("Nucleo"));

System.out.println("***> obj.getCreator().getUserID(): "+ obj.getCreator().getUserID());

System.out.println("***> obj.getCreator().getOid(): "+ obj.getCreator().getOid());

What I got:

[Feb 20, 2013 9:52:11 AM (bgtask-queue-default-listener-0_165)]: -- SANDHYA -- usr.getAttributeValue(Nucleo) = null

[Feb 20, 2013 9:52:11 AM (bgtask-queue-default-listener-0_165)]: ***> obj.getCreator().getUserID(): otadmin

[Feb 20, 2013 9:52:11 AM (bgtask-queue-default-listener-0_165)]: ***> obj.getCreator().getOid(): 1.109.1

Hello,

This must be because even though the attribute exists, there is no value set for the attribute yet. Could you access the “Edit Profile” page and set a value for the attribute for the user profile.

Thanks,

Sandhya

Thanks! It was a matter of realm. Here we have 3 different types, and that was the problem. Thanks again, Paulo.
