Hi All,
I have the following requirement:
I have three users with the same permissions. Each user has been provided permission only to access his own created Index.
For Example:
User 1 --> Index 1
User 2 --> Index 2
User 3 --> Index 3
I have a dashboard created which has some search queries which is common for all the logged in users.
When user1 schedules a dashboard report , the "sendemail.py" script gets triggered generating the PDF.
I need to append the user name on which user has scheduled to run the report, to the file name of the pdf which gets generated.
I know that authorize.conf is a file which stores all the user's details on providing which user has access to which indexes and other details.
I need the user who has scheduled the report so that , if i know the user name i can access authorize.conf file and get other details also about that user.
Please help me on how i can achieve the same.
Following answer has the custom python script to get the current user name. Hope this helps.
