IBM BPM 8.6 :: Unable to reassign back to group - websphere

We're working with IBM BPM 8.6.
In many workflows, we do the typical team assignment. The users can claim the task, and work with it. But there is a problem, they cannot assign the task back to the group within the Process Portal.
All we get is a tooltip with the "This action is not permitted" when we try to reassign back to the group.
Reassign back to group disabled image
The same happens if we try to reassign it to an specific user:
Reassign to user disabled image
We know that we could add the following instruction to the workflows:
tw.system.currentTask.reassignBackToRole()
to reassign it back,
but this would affect all the projects, and it would require time and resources to do so.
Any help or hints will be appreciated.

You need to check the "action policies" for the Portal (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS8JB4_19.x/com.ibm.wbpm.imuc.doc/topics/restricting_access_to_portal_functions.html). I searched for "process portal action policies" to find the linked page (IBMs URLs can be pretty transient).
The one you're interested in is "ACTION_REASSIGN_TASK". This should be available to all users by default so perhaps it has been changed. You can use was_admin to change or check the values e.g.
wsadmin>AdminConfig.modify(getBPMPolicyAction("ACTION_REASSIGN_TASK"), [["roles", "newrole"]])
wsadmin>AdminConfig.save()

Missing GA4 event parameters

I have recently started to use Google Analytics 4 for event tracking, using Google Tag Manager to send events to Analytics. I have set up the custom variables in Tag Manager as well as in GA4.
Everything seems to work very well in Tag Manager's debug mode, and also if I look up the events in real-time view I get the requested event along with all the parameters I have set in Tag Manager. However, once I look up the events for the last couple of days in the Engagement -> Event view, a couple of my parameters are missing, and also I'm not getting the same hit count for each parameter, even though each event has all parameters set:
As you can see, 86 events have been recorded, but the event count for the parameters widely varies.
Here's a screenshot of my Tag manager settings:
I have tried to set up a new event with the same parameters, but (logically) I got the same result. I am under the strong impression I'm missing something obvious here. Does anyone have experience with this, or has anyone come across this same issue?
To be honest, you can just try to click on mark as conversion in the Events tab, and this should save them. I think for some reason GA4 doesn't save parameters otherwise...
i cant get this til work with fields and parameters for an event so i try to create a user custom dimension instead and also to send it as a content group and as user property
also i can see the user id under app instance for the standard report user explorer
but i can't filter on or select this one myself
i cant create the custom parameter reports like gerrit did
but yeah create them as custom dimensions /metric first should be the way
ga4 has a bug when you edit a standard report, you add 3 card and deselect one it still thinks you are maxed out and you have to start over...
the test internal users filters dont work, though you can see data in debug and under events, but since i know they work i know try to just make the filters active

SonarQube API: Retrieving a list of users assigned to a project permission?

I'm trying to find a list of users for a specific project (by projectKey) who possess the issueadmin permission. I've found a documented API that gets me pretty close:
api/permissions/search_project_permissions
but the response that I get back only has summary information: counts of groups/users for each permission type.
search_project_permissions response
Does anybody know if there's a way to get to the login details for the users?
There is an "internal" web service (meaning it could change without notice!) that does this. You'll use it like so:
http://myserver.myco.com/api/permissions/users?projectId=[project guid]&permission=issueadmin
In Web API interface use the "Show Internal API" checkbox at the top of the left column to see it.
just noticed in Sonarqube v6.7 it works as follows:
https://sonarqube.dhl.com/api/permissions/users?projectKey=<KEY>
https://sonarqube.dhl.com/api/permissions/users?projectKey=<KEY>&permission=issueadmin
https://sonarqube.dhl.com/api/permissions/users?projectKey=<KEY>&permission=issueadmin&permission=scan
All possible permissions are (reg. Browse, See Source Code, Administer Issues, Administer and Execute Analysis):
admin
codeviewer
issueadmin
scan
user

Branch.io: detect first install from Unity

Trying to detect the first install event from branch.io link (succesfully implement link creating and sharing). I am using Unity branch sdk. The feature i try to create:
user_1 creates and share link to user_2.
When user_2 opens the link and install app i need to reward both of them (with inner in-game coins)
So i succesfully implement the 1. but I cant understand how to detect is user_2 installs the app or simply open it. All data that comes from branch.io UniversalObject callback doesn't contain information that i need.
Which the correct way to detect the install from code?
Alex from Branch here.
The callback parameter you need is +is_first_session. This is one of the parameters returned when the Branch session is initiated each time your app opens (you can find all all these parameters here). If this returns true, then that device has just installed the app (instead of opening it).
However, note that when these parameters are returned, it's impossible to immediately determine if the user is new (what you want), the device is new (not what you want, since the reward could be given twice if the user has installed on multiple devices), or neither (the user deleted the app and reinstalled on the same device). You would probably want to hold off on actually awarding the referral points until after the user has logged in with some sort of unique ID.
Branch also has a built-in feature for tracking referral points that might be useful. That lets you configure all the rules using the dashboard UI instead of needing to do it programmatically inside your app.

When would I register a crm 2011 online plugin for pre-validation stage?

I understand that a plugin registered for pre-validation executes outside of the database transaction but I'm not sure I can think of a scenario when this would be preferable to pre-operation. Can someone give me an example of where pre-validation registration might be useful?
We have a few plugins registered on the 'PreValidation' event although this is on premise, not online.
I did not write these specific plugins myself but I can describe one and give the justification for using 'PreValidation' rather than 'PreOperation'.
Entity: Account
Event: Delete
Logic: Plugin runs pre validation. Checks that there are no contacts referencing any of the account's addresses. If any are found, stop execution. If not, delete account.
e.g.
Account 'Stackoverflow' has address 'Jeff Attwood's House' and Contact 'glosrob'. 'glosrob' is referencing 'Jeff Attwood's House' through a customisation. If a user selects to delete 'StackOverflow', we should detect 'glosrob' is referencing an address and prevent the delete.
The reasoning behind this was the developer found that at the PreOperation stage, some aspects of the delete had already happened, namely the cascade deletes. The logic of the plugin requires us to check all contacts - by registering at PreOperation, contacts under the account had already been deleted, rendering the check obsolete.
In our previous scenario, when the user selected to delete 'StackOverflow' Account, the Contact 'glosrob' would be deleted before the plugin runs. Therefore when the plugin did run afterwards, it would allow the delete.
As with most things in CRM, it all comes down to requirements and solutions, but I think that gives you an idea of why/when you might use a PreValidation stage. We have a few others with similar reasoning that run on the 'Delete' event.
I know its very old post, came here while digging for an answer for the same question...
Later I found one key point from MSDN on the same topic and i thought it would be helpful If I post the infromation over here for all..
The Prevalidation plugin would happen prior to the security checks. For ex: If an account is "VIP" account and you dont want this account record to be deleted (no matter even he is a super user/admin), then this better can happen in pre validation. Because at that time you are not really bothered about who the user is and what sort of permissions he has (even he may not have any permissions to delete any records in the system), CRM will go and check the database for the user's security roles during the pre operation and that is where the first database hit would happen.. before that it self, we can stop the exucution of the plugin based on our validation rules..
I hope that make sense...
Thank you

TFS 2010 Email Alerts

I found this post, which seems to be an exact duplicate, but I can't figure out how to get the answer to work for me so I'm posting again...
TFS2010: Set up an alert that will email a member in the team when a work item is assigned to them
I want anyone (not everyone) using TFS to receive an email when they are assigned an item or when an item assigned to them changes. So, when the alert happens, the person who is currently assigned the item will receive an email.
I know I can set up this on a per-person basis with Alerts Explorer, but I can't figure out how to do this for everyone at once.
I looked at https://tfsalerts.codeplex.com/, but it looks like it's used to send alerts to groups of people...I only want to send the alert to a single relevant person (the equivalent of #Me). If this tool can do that, I'm not sure how to make it do so.
what you want to do is write a TFS Server Plugin. This plugin will fire whenever a certain event occurs. In your case, you will want to catch the WorkItemChangedEvent. In the notification, you will find old and new values of each field. By checking whether the assigned to field changed, you will know whether the WI has been reassigned.
Once you determined that the WI has been reassigned, you can take the New Value, and go to Active Directory (assuming you're using it), and get the email address. Finally, send a message.
For a code example of writing a robust server plugin (that happens to target the WorkItemChangedEvent, check out this blog post: How to Write a Robust TFS Server Plugin
