How can I filter ConfiForm Table view based on user mention in Field

Dhiraj Kr_ Gupta May 1, 2024

There is a column of user name User. I want to show only those records to users whosev name is mentioned in the column. For eg if there are 20 records and the name of user is mentioned in 5 records. So only those 5 records to be shown for user. And there is one user For eg Dhiraj, all records shown to Dhiraj

Are you talking about filtering data in a form based on current logged in user?

Not exactly. Suppose There is a Confiform Table view

Name Work

John.     X

Cris.      V

John.     B

Alex.     N

John.     A

So when John open this page or Confiform Table view, only those record are shown where Name is John and apart from this there is a universal user to whom every record can bee shown

So, how ConfiForms should know that it is John? Is it the user who is logged in currently?

Yes the user is logged on and Field name contains userId or users name which is recognisable by confluence

In the view macro set the "Filter to apply on entries dataset" parameter to

Name:[entry._user]
