Develop EG custom task: how to get current user id

[qkaiwei]

I can get current server by these codes, but how to get current user id used to connect the AssignedServer?

server = consumer.AssignedServer;

ws = consumer.Workspace(server) as SAS.Workspace;

Please answer it as soon as possible, thank you!

Is it so difficult? I just wanna get the metadata user id singed on.

Hi,

If using EG 4.3, the easiest way is this:

SAS.Tasks.Toolkit.Helpers.SasMetadataProfile.GetActiveProfile().UserID;

Otherwise, you might want to use SAS code to determine, as described here:
