Get Logged In User details using Liquid Template in ADXStudio

As we know that Liquid Template is one of the most powerful weapon of ADXStudio.

Today in this post i would like to share the information about how to get Current Logged In User details of ADXStudio Portal.

Where It is Useful ?

You might have came across so many requirements in which you require logged in user details -

• Perform any Operation based on Current Logged In User.
• Hide and Show Portal Content based on Current Logged In User.
• Perform Redirection based on Current Logged In User. For Example: If  'User A' logged In on Portal, then he should be redirected to 'Page A' and 'User B' should redirected to 'Page B'.
• Show different Home or Landing Page after Sign In based on Current Logged In User.
• If User A has role Role A then do this, if Role B then do that.
• Show Logged In User Account Details.

To achieve all the above requirements you must know about the Current Logged In User after sign in on Portal.

Liquid Template is the best way to achieve the same, Here is the example of the same:

'User'

{% if user %}
  Hello, {{ user.fullname }}!
{% else %}
  Hello, anonymous user!
{% endif %}

Here, 'user'  is an entity object.which refers to the current portal user, allowing access to all attributes of the underlying CRM contact record. If no user is signed in, this variable will be null.

'has_role'

{% assign is_admin = user | has_role: 'Administrators' %}
{% if is_admin %}
  User is an administrator.
{% endif %}

{% assign is_anonymous = user | has_role: 'Anonymous' %}
{% if is_admin %}
  User is an anonymous .
{% endif %}

Applied to a user object, returns true if the user belongs to the given role. Returns false if not.

By using above two features of ADXStudio, You can achieve all the above mentioned requirements.

I hope you all will get the valuable information, for any query feel free to drop me an email or comment on the post.
