Portal user info

View inJavaKotlinView on GitHubSample viewer app

Retrieve a user's details via a Portal.

Image of access portal user info

Use case

This portal information can be used to provide a customized UI experience for the user. For example, you can show a thumbnail next to their username in the header of an application to indicate that they are currently logged in. Additionally, apps such as Collector and Explorer use this functionality to integrate with Portal.

How to use the sample

When prompted, enter your ArcGIS Online credentials.

How it works

  1. Create a Portal, requesting an URL and requiring login.
  2. When the app launches, the portal is loaded, which triggers an authentication challenge.
  3. Display a login screen with AuthenticationView.
  4. Upon successful login, get a PortalUser using portal.user. Get user attributes using:
    • portalUser.fullName
    • portalUser.email
    • portalUser.created
  5. Load a thumbnail image using portalUser.fetchThumbnailAsync()

Relevant API

  • AuthenticationManager
  • DefaultAuthenticationChallengeHandler
  • PortalInfo
  • PortalUser
