 Hello Team,


we have implemented a functionality of adding logged in user in contributor list by login into repository through plugin.

currently we have implemented in this way.
   IContributor contributor = null;
ITeamRepository repo = TeamPlatform.getTeamRepositoryService().getTeamRepository(iac.getRepositoryURI());
repo.registerLoginHandler(new LoginHandler(IMSConstant.IMS_GENERIC_USER_ID, IMSConstant.IMS_GENERIC_PASSWD));
repo.login(monitor);
IContributorHandle[] iContributorHandles = operation.getProcessArea().getMembers(); 
String authenticatedUserItemId = getAuthenticatedContributor().getItemId().toString();

</pre>

Please suggest any other way to get logged in user in plugin without repository login.

 You have to be logged into the repository to appear as logged in user.

 Hello Ralph,


Thanks for your reply.
Consider a scenario, user XYZ is logged in and tries to update the workitem, we want the details of the user XYZ in plugin code.

please suggest alternative solution for retrieving the details of user XYZ without pro-grammatically login into repository.

 If the user is already logged int the API works as desired. For example see https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2014/05/26/only-owner-can-close-workitem-advisor/ .
