Hello,
Working on implementing custom security filter... I ran into an issue.

Issue: Want to invalidate user session upon click on logoff in Dashboard. Below is the code..When user clicks on logoff in BID banner.. uri doesn't see "/logoff" in request submitted to WF Client. All I see is "http://servername/ibi_apps/controller" in request.
How to capture/catch logoff action in BID?

any suggestions would be helpful.

String uri = httpServletRequest.getRequestURI();
if (uri != null) {
if (uri.indexOf("/logoff") >= 0) {
session.removeAttribute("IBUser");
httpServletRequest.getSession(false).invalidate();
return;
}
}

WF Client Environment: WF 7703
Thanks

I believe the log off already invalidates the session. What you should focus on is invalidating the session when it is a new logon from the same machine when the previous user does not logoff properly. I usually do the invalidate as part of the logon. If the IBUser parameter NE IBUser attribute, then invalidate.
