How to achieve mass user mapping

Ganesh,

to acheive mass user mapping, assign all the users to a group and do the usermapping for this group.

Hi Ganesh,

In portal u can not map user-id against Group(i.e. collection of users)

So one way is that,

1. Create a group of users having same backend user-id

2. In program get all the users which are under that group(using UME api)

3. Map the required user-id and password against each group member(as given by Santhosh)

Hi Ganesh,

You just need to create an abstract portal component.

I am providing the code in this post to retrieve all users from the group..The <b>vector users</b> contain all the users of ur group name.

Also combine the code of user mapping service in my previous post with the folloing code

IGroupFactory gFact = UMFactory.getGroupFactory();
IGroupSearchFilter gsf = gFact.getGroupSearchFilter();
gsf.setDisplayName("you group name",ISearchAttribute.EQUALS_OPERATOR,false);
ISearchResult sr = gFact.searchGroups(gsf);
if (sr != null)
{
String uniqueId = (String) sr.next();
IGroup grp = gFact.getMutableGroup(uniqueId);

Iterator it = grp.getUserMembers(false);

Vector users = new Vector();
IUserFactory userFact = UMFactory.getUserFactory();
while (it.hasNext()) 
{
	String userName = (String) it.next();
	IUser usr = null;
	usr = userFact.getUser(userName);				 
	users.addElement(usr);
}
}

Hi Ganesh,

You can use Usermanagement API to update the user mapping data.Following is the code,which uses UserMaping Service and updates the user mapping data.Hope this might be helpful..In portalapp.xml you need to give reference to User management and user mapping services

IUserMappingService iums = (IUserMappingService)
 PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources().getService(IUserMappingService.KEY);
  IUserMappingData iumd = iums.getMappingData (systemalias, iuser); 
   Map map = new HashMap (); 
   try { 
      iumd.enrich (map); 
  map.put(“user”,”new user name”);
  map.put(“mappedpassword”,”new password”);
iumd.storeLogonData(map);//This saves the new user and //password to that system
} 
     catch (NoLogonDataAvailableException nldae)   {   
   // Error handling 
   }

Rgds,
