MDK Current Logged UserID in Web application

[yyertuganov]

Dear Experts,

The app I am developing will be used both in Android and Web, where will need to identify current logged in User for processing in front end codes. My understanding we use UserID in #Application/#ClientData/UserId and it seems working correctly in Android, where it returns current users e-mail address. My problem is in Web application, where I get Empty value for this UserID. I read through some questions in the web but I couldn´t get clear answer if this is bug specifically for Web or something else.

So my 2 questions here:

1. Is it known issue/bug not being able to get UserId in Web version of MDK? If so what would be a workaround?

2. In Android as userID I get current logged users email (e.g. yyertuganov@example.com), is there way to get current logged users Login name instead (like SAP S or P ID or IAS Login id as e.g. 'S00254580' or 'YYERTUGANOV' ?

Many thanks,

Yergali

#Application/#ClientData/UserId in web runtime now returns the correct value. Please choose "Preview" web runtime option while deploying MDK metadata to Cloud Foundry.

jitendrakumar.kansal good news !!!

Is this available in "Preview" and it will be available in "production" in the future?

"Production" web runtime will be updated in two weeks.

Thanks a lot Jitendra!!

Only one more thing, I see right now it returns current loged user, his/her email address, is there any way to access to other data like actual User ID, Name etc.

In case of Android we were accesing them thorugh GET to /mobileservices/application/${appId}/roleservice/application/${appId}/v2/Me..

Accessing other data is currently not available in web runtime.
