No changes made, now code does not work

DanielSmith

I was playing around tinkering with how to subset data based on user ID. I used the Persisting Identity Manager template from ESRI as a starting point. i ended up using the idObject to gain access to the userID and used that in value in a definition query of the operational layers.

 //access the user credential stored in the idObject       var user = idObject.credentials[0].userId;       var demoMapService = new ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer("https://****");       //ser layer Definition based on the user name       var layerDefs = [];       layerDefs[1] = "owner='"+ user+"'";       demoMapService.setLayerDefinitions(layerDefs);       map.addLayer(demoMapService);

this was working fine until i came back to it today and i am no longer prompted for credentials.
Firebug says:

 TypeError: idObject is undefined http://atreyu/AuthenticationTemplate/index.html Line 79

oddly my button_click() is also coming up as undefined though all the code is there. '

Any hints or clues?

Hi,

  Assuming you're referring to this sample: https://developers.arcgis.com/en/javascript/jssamples/widget_identitymanager_client_side.html you might uncomment and tweak the console log message in the loadCredentials function to see if the problem is in the presence of or parsing of the idJson.  Might could be something is up with the cookie (disabled or security setting?).  And if there's another template or something you're referring to, maybe using this simple javascript sample would help you reduce variables and narrow down the issue.

Good luck!
