Relogin User with Script

[Meloper]

Hi,

with GlideSessions.lockOutSessionsInAllNodes(user) im able to logout a User.

Is there an Option to logout and login again? <- with script

So that the user dont have to do the relogin manually?

I don't think it's a valid business requirement.

Why would you want a script to login for user?

Hi Ankur,

after a special Action of the User, we assign a Role to the User.
Unfortunatly, the User needs to logout and login again, to get the "function" of that new rule.
We would like to find a Solution, so that the User does not have to do any action by themself

Hi @Meloper 

Try this :

var user = gs.getUser();

// Refresh GlideSession object
GlideSecurityManager.get().setUser(user);

// Refresh GlideUser object
gs.getSession().loadUserByID(user.getID());
