Get user id from portal and pass it thru asp

[Former Member]

Hello,

Is there anyway we can get the user id from portal and pass it as querystring to asp pages. I know we can get the userid from IPortalComponentRequest object (Abstract portal component) As soon we get the user id i want to redirect to asp

IUser user = request.getUser();

String user_id = user.getUserid();

Immediately i want the abstractportal component to redirect to asp, the id will be passed as querystring

Or Is it possible to write a jsp as wrapper (Not portal components) to get the user id of portal so that i can forward the request to asp pages

Help is greatly appreciated

Thanks,

Lak

You can use do a response.sendRedirect to the asp page with the userid as part of the query string or put the asp page into a IsolatedHTMLContainer

IsolatedHtmlContainer ihc = new IsolatedHtmlContainer("");

ihc.setSrcURL("<put url here>.asp?userid="+userID);

You can use a jsp page too, to redirect.

Hello Raj,

Thank you very much for the answer. I have already full points. I am just curious to know whether isolatedhtml control can be used with abstactportal component ( Since it is htmlb component i am not able to use it in abstract portal component) Am i right ??? Also can you please let me how to use only JSP to forward the userid to asp. ( I mean How to get the userid of portal using JSP, iam typecasting request object to IPortalComponentRequest to get the userid and it is not compiling)

Thanks again

This is how you get UserID in portal,

Java:

String portalUser = request.getUser().getUniqueName();

(Or) JSP:

<%String portalUser =componentRequest.getUser().getUniqueName();%>

Dear Mhadi Peter,

Our company use the Enterprise Portal. (EP620 SP2 Patch31)

I want to get User ID logged in the Portal.

Could you give me the JAVA and JSP source ?
