Process Purpose

The "Get User Info" process is used to get the info of the current logged in user from the selected OAuth 2.0 identity server defined in authorization profile.

This type of request requires the matching "profile" scope to be configured in the authorization profile and in the server.

As this process also returns the ID Token, you must ensure that the "openid" scope is configured in the authorization profile and server as well.

When you add a process, you are required to define its settings. This occurs in the process's properties window which is displayed automatically after having added the "Get User Info" process.

If any subsequent edition is required, double-click the process to open its properties window and enter the necessary modifications.

Fill in the following options:

Authorization
Authorization Profile	Select an authorization profile from the drop-down OR click to access the authorization profile list and edit an existing profile or create a new one. See To Create an Authorization Profile with "OAuth 2.0" Authentication and/or To Edit an Authorization Profile.
Store User Info into Variable
Variable	Click to define the variable that will receive the "User Info" data.
If ... Go to
Error	Select a target location from the drop-down or click to access a list of destinations, in case an error occurs. See Detail of a window below. When defining a screen as a target destination (ex: via a “Go to” process), you CANNOT use variables to specify the name of that target screen. You must select the intended screen from the available drop-down/list.

Detail of a window:

"S:Menu" is a screen included in the same program as the process.

"R:Routine_1" is a routine included in the same program as the process.

If required, use the icon on the upper right corner of the properties window to attach any relevant notes to this process. Click it and enter your notes in the resulting text box. These notes will be displayed in the corresponding "Actions" tab or "Process" window (in the "Notes" field) and in the "Developer Report".

After filling in the required options, click to conclude or to abort the operation.

The added process is displayed in the corresponding "Actions" tab or "Process" window.

If you want to use a label as a target destination, you can use the "Auto-Label" mechanism. This alternative to the "Set Label" process allows you to create a label in the properties window of a process - specifically, in the fields used to define target destinations (ex: the "If Error..." type fields). See To Automatically Create a Label.

Use the right click in MCL-Designer's input boxes to access certain features regarding the input box's option as well as general actions such as "Copy"; "Paste"; "Search".

Ex: If you right-click the "Variable" input box (included in a "Conversion's" properties window), you are provided with the "Search..."and "Variable Select" options.

If you right-click another input box, it will provide other possibilities.
