iview for userhome user folder

[Former Member]

Hello Portal Experts,

I want to create an iview which should open (/userhome/<user-id>) personal folder specific to the logged in user.

I found the following thread related to that and I have created a navigational iview and given the path /userhome/<user.id>, but the <user.id> is not recognised by the system. Can any of you suggest me a solution for this.

Hi,

We are using an cm.navigation iview with /_alias/userhome/<user.id> as path displayed folder and it works... try again with this path.

Hi

[There are 2 possibilities to achieve that|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/thread?threadID=1288198&messageID=7289144#7289144]

So what you could do is to create a new iView based on the portal component com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap.Generic and in the parameter "URL Template" insert "/irj/go/km/navigation/userhome/<User.UserID>/Personal Documents/mytargetfolder".

(found this one on the forum)

OR

KM Navigation IView

path = /_alias/cernum_documents/Personal Documents/<user.id>/Personal Documents

(We used this one)

If you've got a new userID, the folders are created as a subfolders of the userID folder is accessed at least once through an IView. (a servcie behind triggers the creation)

Hi Scott,

It works now.

Thank you very much for your reply. I tried without the ~alias that is the reason it was not working.

Appreciate your help.
