Help with User Group assignment in AEM ADODBE CQ

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We have a requirement in our project wherein user creation in AEM ADOBE CQ happens through webservices.

The URL used for Group Assignment is as below:

localhost//home/groups/a/admin.rw.html

In this case, whenever we provision a user with "Admin" user group, it is successful.

However in case the Group name starts with any letter other than "a" (for ex: hiking-admins), this does not get assigned to user as the group name starts with "h"

I have zero knowledge in java. I would like to know if we can write a code wherein the group is picked up based on run time value?

For ex: if it is hiking-admins group, it goes to H folder and then search for hiking-admins and assign to user

Thanks & Regards,

V!

Hi Ervin,

Sure.

I defined variables as below:

    var empprivkey=Par.get("emppriv");    [emppriv will be the run time user group which we will be selecting in IDM UI. This will be entered as a parameter in our pass]

    var xyz=empprivkey.slice(0,1);    [this variable will fetch the first letter of user group and store it in xyz]

We then call this variable in our URL:

localhost//home/groups/"+xyz+"/admin.rw.html

Thanks & Regards,

V!
