Translating User GUID to a name

Avatar

Former Community Member
Can anyone point me to the fastest method for taking a User's GUID and finding the actual name of that user? The GUID is what's returned by the User component when you choose "Save Task Completed By User ID in:" in the Mapping tap, i.e. "5AE029B1-D881-1E5F-6FDC-6100288FABF7". I am providing an external application with task and user tracking data, and they need an actual name.



Currently, I have a "registration form" that I fill out once for each user, which grabs their ID and stores it and their name in a lookup table. The tracking system then refers to that table to provide the external app with the name of the user. It's functional, but definitely not the ideal solution.

Hi Clifton



The easiest way is to use our UserLookup QPAC.

You can find a copy at: http://www.avoka.com/betaqpacs/

It has no documentation and may have bugs, but you should be able to work it out reasonably easily. If you have any problems, please let me know.
