Have you enabled SSO between the portal and the back-end server? If you haven't, and have enabled guest login on the back-end server, this may explain the behavior you're seeing.

If you have SSO enabled between the two servers, then it should 'just work'. However, be warned: if you do any sort of user mapping between the two servers, you'll see the user id of the user in the back-end system, not the portal system, and there is no direct way to retrieve user details of the user from the portal perspective.

If you've configured the two environments to use the same authentication source, then you'll be fine.

Hi

Use the following code after declare the uses type of com.sap.security.api

IWDMessageManager messageManager= wdThis.wdGetAPI().getComponent().getMessageManager();
		WDClientUser.forceLoggedInClientUser();
		String user_id= null;
		String first_Name= null;
		String last_Name= null;
		String roleName= null;
		boolean isAuthroziedToApprove= false;
		IRole role= null;
		try
		{
			IWDClientUser currentUser= WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
			IUser sapCurrentUser= currentUser.getSAPUser();
			if (sapCurrentUser != null)
			{
				Iterator rit= null;
				rit= sapCurrentUser.getRoles(true);
				IRoleFactory rfact= UMFactory.getRoleFactory();
				ArrayList userRoles= null;
				userRoles= new ArrayList();
				while (rit.hasNext())
				{

					roleName= (String) rit.next();
					role= rfact.getRole(roleName);
					userRoles.add(new String(role.getDisplayName()));
					//Setting user details into context
(isAuthroziedToApprove);
					wdContext.currentPortalUserDetailsElement().setUserId(sapCurrentUser.getUniqueName());
					wdContext.currentPortalUserDetailsElement().setFirstName(sapCurrentUser.getFirstName());
					wdContext.currentPortalUserDetailsElement().setLastName(sapCurrentUser.getLastName());
				}
				wdContext.currentPortalUserDetailsElement().setUserRoles(userRoles);
			}
		}
		catch (WDUMException e)
		{
		
			messageManager.reportException(e.getLocalizedMessage(), false);
		}
		catch (UMException e)
		{
			
		}

Hi

Try below code :

userId = new LoggedInUser().getLoggedInUser(request, response);

LoggedInUser

-

---

public String getLoggedInUser(
		HttpServletRequest request,
		HttpServletResponse response)
		throws ServletException, IOException {
		IUser user =
			UMFactory.getAuthenticator().getLoggedInUser(request, response);
		if (null == user) {
			//response.sendError(401); //401 = Unauthorised
			UMFactory.getAuthenticator().forceLoggedInUser(request, response);
			response.sendRedirect("abc.do");
		}
		String userId = request.getRemoteUser();
		return userId;

	}

Thanks
