endlessdsire,

I have never just tried to get the userid, Most of the time I just need the token. But the principle is the same, to get a credential object.

if(IdentityManager.instance.enabled){
                            var cred:Credential = IdentityManager.instance.findCredential(lyrURL);
                            if (cred && cred.token){
                                lyrToken = cred.token;
                            }
                        }

Evelyn,

The lyrURL is the URL address of what ever map service that was used that is secured and required the login. As far as what is the lyrToken. You need to read the documentation.

Hi All,
I believe that featureLayer has and userId property, so you can get the userId using this:
featureLayerName.userId. See reference below.

Hope this helps.
