Retrieve User behind completion of a workflow step (Forms & Journals) ?
Hello,
Is it possible to get the user who completed a 'Form Input' step in OneStream ? To clarify, I am able to do so for 'Import/Validate/Load' steps but I'm under the impression that it's impos...
There is a DataAdapter method that will give you that information, so you can execute that (from a rule if necessary).
As far as I can see (but I've not tested it), the public API allows you to retrieve the forms with BRApi.Forms.Metadata.GetForms(si, wfClusterPk) , which should reflect form status, but it doesn't report the author. You could get the form ID from there and then look up some database table to get the user, but I reckon it's easier to just leverage the adapter.
Same deal my friend, you need to leverage infos from the tables in your database ! Go check out the table 'TaskflowLogItems' and search for the rows where 'Reason contains ConfirmXXX' and cross it with another table that logs infos you need. Everything is stored there ! For Import/Validate/Load steps you can find what you need in 'TaskActivity' tables
If this helps a bit, don't hesitate to drop a Kudos it would be appreciated
I used an SQL query to retrieve the infos I needed (completedUserName, RevertedUserName, StepStatus etc ...) but only if the form step has been initiated !
Here is a code sample:
Dim wfClusterPk As WorkflowUnitClusterPk = BRApi.Workflow.General.GetUserWorkflowInitInfo(si).GetSelectedWorkflowUnitClusterPk()
Dim baseWfProfileInfo As List(Of WorkflowProfileInfo) = BRApi.Workflow.Metadata.GetRelatives(si, wfClusterPk, WorkflowProfileRelativeTypes.Descendants, WorkflowProfileTypes.AllProfiles)
If baseWfProfileInfo.Count > 0 Then
For Each wfstep As WorkflowProfileInfo In baseWfProfileInfo
If wfstep.GetAttribute(myscenarioType.Id, 1300).GetValueAsInt(True) = 1 Then
Dim tempsql As New Text.StringBuilder
Dim tempdt = New DataTable("dataTableResult")
tempsql.AppendLine("SELECT *")
tempsql.AppendLine("FROM TaskflowStepLog")
tempsql.AppendLine("WHERE TaskflowStepLog.Reason = 'InputForms'")
tempsql.AppendLine("AND TaskflowStepLog.Wfk = '" & wfstep.ProfileKey.ToString & "'")
tempsql.AppendLine("AND TaskflowStepLog.Wsk = '" & wfPk.ScenarioKey.ToString & "'")
tempsql.AppendLine("AND TaskflowStepLog.Wtk = '" & wfPk.TimeKey.ToString & "'")
tempsql.AppendLine("ORDER BY TaskflowStepLog.InstanceTimeStamp Desc")
Using dbConnApp As DBConnInfoApp = BRAPi.Database.CreateApplicationDbConnInfo(si)
tempdt = BRApi.Database.ExecuteSql(dbConnApp, tempsql.ToString, False)
End Using
Dim lastCompleteFormUserName As String = "To Be Determined"
Dim lastRevertFormUserName As String = "To Be Determined"
Dim lastCompleteTime As Date = Date.MinValue
Dim lastRevertTime As Date = Date.MinValue
If tempdt.Rows.Count > 0 Then
Dim CompleteuserID As Guid = tempdt.AsEnumerable().Where(Function(x) x("InstanceStatus") = 2).Select(Function(x) x("UserID")).FirstOrDefault()
Dim lastCompleteSecurityUser As UserInfo = BRApi.Security.Authorization.GetUser(si, CompleteuserID)
Dim RevertuserID As Guid = tempdt.AsEnumerable().Where(Function(x) x("InstanceStatus") = 1).Select(Function(x) x("UserID")).FirstOrDefault()
Dim lastRevertSecurityUser As UserInfo = BRApi.Security.Authorization.GetUser(si, RevertuserID)
If Not lastCompleteSecurityUser Is Nothing Then
lastCompleteFormUserName = lastCompleteSecurityUser.User.Name
lastCompleteTime = tempdt.AsEnumerable().Where(Function(x) x("InstanceStatus") = 2).Select(Function(x) x("InstanceTimeStamp")).FirstOrDefault()
End If
If Not lastRevertSecurityUser Is Nothing Then
lastRevertFormUserName = lastRevertSecurityUser.User.Name
lastRevertTime = tempdt.AsEnumerable().Where(Function(x) x("InstanceStatus") = 1).Select(Function(x) x("InstanceTimeStamp")).FirstOrDefault()
End If
End If
Next wfstep
End If
From these infos you can create your own DataTable like the following:
