use variable in (LDAP-)Questions

[magheinz]

Is there a way to use Variables in Questions?

I want to create a LDAP-Question with a filter by username, so i can show every group the user is member of.

is it possible?

Hi

For now, this is not possible.

Also, querying directly the directory may be less efficient. If you want to develop such feature I suggest you consider to import LDAP groups in glpi then use these imported groups as source for your need.

Ok. How can i show a list with groups, where the user is member ob, so he can select one of this groups in a form? I only need every group, only the groups with names like: "share_admins_XYZ" where the user is member of.

So he can ceate a ticket for changin quotas, by example.

If I remember well there is a method in the class User, group or group_user which gives all groups a user is member of. Iterate on those groups to filter by name with a SQL query and using the operator LIKE.

To show this list in a form, I suggest you create a custom question type implementing the rough algorithm above. I think you can create a class inherited from the glpi object field.
