Getting the Organization value from LFDS to use in Forms

Forms
Updated December 14, 2017
asked on December 11, 2017

Good morning,

In LFDS there is a field for Organization. We have these fields populated. What we are trying to do is somehow populate this field value into Forms, say in a SingleLine field or something. 

We'll be using this as an identification method. 

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thank you,

Raul Gonzalez

If it's Forms team, you can use Forms webapi request to get all teams that user belongs to:

http://FormServer/Forms/webapi/v1/user/[user_SID]?teamMode=all&team_fields=name,id,yourAdminRights,yourMemberRights,settings&user_fields=none

The user_SID can be found in database [cf_users] table.

Hi Raul,

Forms does not keep the organization that current user belongs to, as the authentication is done on LFDS side.

I think maybe you can save a list of users and their organizations in a separated database, and setup lookup rules to match current user in Forms.

Thanks Rui,

Do you know of a way to retrieve the group(s) that the user belong to? Either by Forms or an SQL query?

Forms did not keep user and groups mapping. Maybe you can ask the question in Directory Server topic and see if people in LFDS know that.

Thanks Rui, yes it seems that with your URL format I can retrieve an array of information.

I'll give it a shot to see how I can implement this in our form. What we are trying to do is display content for users that belong to a particular team only.

Thanks again,

Raul Gonzalez
