Enter userid in section access in 11.2 SR2

Hi,

I'm openning my .qvw document from IEplugin for this I use a url with the following format:

https://<server_name>/QvPlugin/opendoc.htm?document=<doc_path>&ticket=<ticket_no>&host=<host_name>&u...

this is oppening the document, however, inside the .qvw document when I try to get the userid using the system function QVuser( ) I get an empty string. This was working fine before the upgrade from 11.2 SR1, has this changed in the latest version?

As far as I know QVuser( ) should return the name of the user as entered in the section access, how can I check if it is correctly entered in the section access using QMC?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi,

Try OSUser()

Hi Ariel,

Thanks for your answer, also tried with OSuser() but as far as I could read in documentation:

OSuser( ) Returns a string containing the name of the current user as returned by the operating system.

QVuser( ) Returns a string containing the name of the current QlikView user as entered in a section access.

When I use OSuser() I get the user name I use to get the ticket, which happens to be different to the one I'm sending through the url.

I think I can only read the "userid" parameter from the url. Is there some way to do this without using a macro? (this because ofclient requierements).
