Hello,
Is there any way to get notified whenever a user in DW gets activated?

Activating user notification

Hi Alexandru
You can see the options on creating a user here:
If you setup the user to approve him self, the admin can be notified by filling in the admin notification section - see below.
Hi Nicolai,
In our case, the activation is done by the admin.
We are supposed to execute some custom code upon activation and email the user.
I understand that DW handles the email sent as part of the standard functionality (you have confirmed this on a separate thread). Still, we need to execute the custom code somehow, and only after the user has been activated.
Thank you,
Adrian
The approval action triggers a UserOnBeforeSave and UserSaved notification.
And you can combine that with looking for approvalKey in the POST. So if !string.isNullOrEmpty(Request("approvalKey")) and user.Active = true; and user is saved, it is an activation.
Hello,
The problem I have with this is that I cannot find the approvalKey in any POST involving user saved. I do not see anything similar to "approvalKey" in the body.
I also tried getting it in the 2 notifications mentioned: var approvalKey = HttpContext.Current.Request["approvalKey "]; but it always comes empty.
What I am trying to achieve is this:
We have a user that is inactive. A backend admin goes to the user -> options -> checks Active -> press Save User.
I want a way to execute custom code when the user went from a state of inactive to active. I want to capture this change.
By the method you described, I am unable to do this. Please advise?
Thank you,
Alex
Hi Alexandru
That is very different from what we have discussed. I was referring to the activate user feature of the frontend - you are in the backend.
You can take a look at the post that happens in the backend and react to that instead. How that post looks like can be seen in your browser developer tools.
