[External Email] Re: Help getting username

[Jeffrey J Ramsay]

I am passing the information from a mfa bean using the flows mechanism. I
was trying to replicate what I have seen in the -flows.xml file.

The username reference is just my thing but what I’m trying to get is the
id the user used in the auth/Password view. I am able to produce it in my
own view.

I can share the code I have if necessary. Still trying to learn here.

Thanks,
Jeff
