How to identify user already exist on ODC
Question
Application Type
Reactive

Hi All,

I am implementing User Management in an ODC application and would like to understand how duplicate user registrations can be identified.

Is there any built-in functionality in ODC to detect or prevent duplicate user registrations, or do we need to maintain the user information somewhere and implement our own validation/check?

Any guidance or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Atal,

You can use the StartUserRegistration action from the System.

Pass the mandatory information to the action. If the username or email already exists, the action will return the relevant information indicating that the user is already registered.

You can use the action's output to handle the duplicate registration scenario accordingly.

Please refer to the action output below for more details.
