UWP : Get the current UserName to provide rights to the user

问题

For an app that I develop for a customer, I need to get the current user details. Then I must assign rights by comparing the couple "domain\login" to a table containing all the authorized users.

I reuse the code given by @Sergiu Cojocaru here , that I have mixed with an official sample (UserInfo) to get more details:

IReadOnlyList<Windows.System.User> users = await Windows.System.User.FindAllAsync();

var current = users.Where(u => u.AuthenticationStatus == Windows.System.UserAuthenticationStatus.LocallyAuthenticated &&
                               u.Type == Windows.System.UserType.LocalUser).FirstOrDefault();

// user may have username
var data = await current.GetPropertyAsync(KnownUserProperties.AccountName);
string displayName = (string)data;

// or may be authenticated using hotmail/outlook
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(displayName))
{
    string firstName = (string)await current.GetPropertyAsync(KnownUserProperties.FirstName);
    string lastName = (string)await current.GetPropertyAsync(KnownUserProperties.LastName);
    displayName = string.Format("{0} {1}", firstName, lastName);
}

But actually I only get the "firstName" and the "lastName" from "KnownUserProperties". The others properties are empties:

providerName: null
accountName: null
guestHost: null
principalName: null
domainName: null
sipUri: null

=> Is this normal?

The problem is that the expected couple "domain\login" is based on the result of the command line "whoami", that doesn't give the same result that "firstName" and "lastName".

=> Is there a way to get the same result in the app?

I specify that I use a hotmail account but the customers accounts must be based on Active Directory: I don't know if this will change anything...

回答1:

To get information about domain and domain user change

var data = await current.GetPropertyAsync(KnownUserProperties.AccountName);

var data = await current.GetPropertyAsync(KnownUserProperties.DomainName);

on my side result is: ROM.EUROPE.TECHTEAM.COM\scojocar
