How to check initiator role on gateway path condition

Q&A
1

Hi, I'm looking for a way, if it is possible at all in Bonita 7.10, to choose a path on a gateway based on the role in my organization of the initiator of the process.

Example:

- Initiator is a Sales Assistant i need to follow path A

- Initiator is Sales Manager i need to follow path B

 

Thanks

hello, 

On the branch of the gateway, i imagine you can use a condition expression close to this one:

 

import org.bonitasoft.engine.identity.User
import org.bonitasoft.engine.identity.UserSearchDescriptor
import org.bonitasoft.engine.search.SearchOptionsBuilder

User Initiator = BonitaUsers.getProcessInstanceInitiator(apiAccessor,processInstanceId);


Long roleId = apiAccessor.getIdentityAPI().getRoleByName(“Sales Assistant”).getId();


final SearchOptionsBuilder builder = new SearchOptionsBuilder(0, 1);

builder.filter(UserSearchDescriptor.ROLE_ID, roleId);

builder.filter(UserSearchDescriptor.USER_NAME, Initiator.getUserName());


return apiAccessor.getIdentityAPI().searchUsers(builder.done()).getCount() == 1 ;

Need to be careful, if the user has both role, you will need a default path.

 

hope this helps,

Julien.
