How do you pass the client ID as part of the login process? When Puneet was working on the login he wasn't getting the Client ID as part of the response from the login. Is this possible as it's needed to only then display the accounts of that client. And could you clarify that this is the client ID that's created when their client account is created in mifos (and not an ID that's generated when their self-service user account is created). [Adi] As part of authentication response, we are not sending list of client ids associated with the app user. In situations like agent banking, this info could become too big. Best way to know clients associated with self service user is using clients api itself. If the response is a single client, app can directly proceed to accounts page. If it is more than one client, list the clients. Yes, Client Id is different from app user/self service user id. Self-Creation of a Self Service User ID Is it possible for a client to create their own self-service user ID or is that only supported by a back office staff? The use case is as such: I download the app from the Google Play Store and have a link to "Sign Up". I click sign up and then should be prompte for my account number or phone number and then based on that it selects which client account i have in mifos and I can then create my user ID and credentials. [Adi] App user creation is a secure operation which needs permissions to use the APIs. In the scenario that you have mentioned, we need an intermediate implementation that takes the open requests from clients an in the background verify and create self service users. -- Ed Cable Director of Community Programs, Mifos Initiative edca...@mifos.org | Skype: edcable | Mobile: +1.484.477.8649 Collectively Creating a World of 3 Billion Maries | http://mifos.org <http://facebook.com/mifos> <http://www.twitter.com/mifos>
