Greetings!!
One question, does anyone know a way of getting all the users that are loaded into Runtime using the API?
I would like to show a comboBox containing all the possible users of WF, in order to perform a "transfer" of the workitem.
Thank you very much!!! |

If you want a list of users you can transfer the workitem to, you can do a
Person.PersonsAuthorizedFor(). This will return all the users the person is authorized for (can transfer workitems to).
See the API.

Ratan: The Bummer  about this is that if the user is authorized to ALL users, this returns an empty list.
My guess is that Venny will recommend using the StaffAPI if rog552003 is on V3.6...
If not on V3.6 there is no easy way to get the list of all users known to MQWF.

Well, I thought if he posted the version somebody would give him a better answer. I haven't worked with newer versions of the product (above 3.4) and especially, development side of it. |

I'm on v3.4 and I had to solve the same problem as you. I ended up querying the PERSON table in the runtime db for a list of unique names.
I know it's probably not the preferred way of getting the names, but it's the only thing that worked for me. Also, I've had it in production now for over a year and I've never had a problem with it.
good luck,
