The WebFOCUS Client can pass a browser cookie or HTTP header to the Reporting Server for use in WebFOCUS procedures.

The following server built-in functions can be used to retrieve this information and use it in a procedure.

• The GETCOOKI function can be used to retrieve the browser cookie value.
• The GETHEADR function can be used to retrieve variable values from the HTTP header.

For more information about WebFOCUS functions, see the Using Functions manual.

In addition, three Dialogue Manager system variables contain connection information.

• &FOCSECUSER returns the user ID of the connected user,
• &FOCSECGROUP returns the primary group ID for the connected user, if there is one.
• &FOCSECGROUPS returns the list of group IDs for the connected user (required the server to be configured with profile_setting=all)..
