Posted on by thanhtt22

I created the following code snippet to retrieve the current logged-in user's role information:

{% fetchxml userRoles %}
<fetch>
  <entity name="role">
    <attribute name="name" />
    <link-entity name="systemuserroles" from="roleid" to="roleid" link-type="inner">
      <filter>
        <condition attribute="systemuserid" operator="eq" value="{{ user.id }}" />
      </filter>
    </link-entity>
  </entity>
</fetch>
{% endfetchxml %}
{% if userRoles.results.size > 0 %}
  <ul>
  {% for role in userRoles.results %}
    <li>{{ role.name }}</li>
  {% endfor %}
  </ul>
{% else %}
  <p>No roles assigned.</p>
{% endif %}

However, when running the code above, it does not retrieve the roles of the current user.

Even though I have created Table Permissions for the Security Role table.

I wonder if anyone on the forum has encountered this issue like I have?

Thank you for reading my post.

Hello,

The portal user is a contact in Dataverse, not an User.
The "Role" table you are looking at is only used for Dataverse users.
It's not the same thing, you're trying to find the Role of a user but you're passing the Id of a contact in the parameter.

The Roles of a Contact (portal user) are in the “Web Roles” table
