[CLOSED] Dashboard dynamic group views selection
Hello
We are using only group views in Dashboard.
Some users are authorized to more than one view.
We need a standard URL to take the user either to the only authorized view or to a list of authorized views(if more than one).
If a user has more than one view we could do with a default view also.

http://servername/ibi_apps/wor...Views.jsp?action=gbv will list all views in the dashboard without consideration to user authorization at all.

We can navigate to a special view with the url
http://servername/ibi_apps/bid...RIFY&WORP_MPV=ag_gbv

WebFOCUS 768 Hotfix 3.
Windows
Authentication is done via IIS REMOTE_USER variable
Authorization=Internal
Best regards,
Mats

did you try
http://servername/ibi_apps/bid-login?

If goToPersonalViewOnLogin in bid-config.xml is set to false then when a person logs in if they are a memeber of 1 group they go directly to the view. If member of multiple groups they are presented with a list of views to select from

Thank you Crystal. This worked for a user with a single domain but user with more than one gets a list of all domains.
Any idea about that would be perfect.

Not sure what else to try it works for us. Example we have user A that is a member of groups a, b and c when they log in they will see a list of the 3 dashboards associated with those groups. While user B is only a member of group a. So when he logs in he is taken directly to the dashboard that is associated with group A. These are groups within the MRE and the users in question only have the user role. If a person has the admin role for example they would see all of the dashboards that are available regardless of mre group membership.
