- Role-Based Filtering: Before retrieving user information, actions can be restricted based on the user's role using If Then Else.
- Detail Page Redirection: After the Get User By ID action is executed, redirection to the detail screen can be performed (using the Navigate action).
- Complex Information Sets: If additional information such as the user's role or subscription information is required, it can be supported with additional queries (e.g. Get Roles + Get Subscription).
Technical Risks and Precautions
- Invalid ID Use: No data will be retrieved if an invalid or incorrectly formatted ID is entered. Validation should be performed on form inputs.
- Unauthorised Access: This action should only be used by authorised users.
- Empty Data Return: If the user ID does not exist in the system, empty data may be returned. In this case, the user should be informed (e.g., ‘User not found’ warning).
- Data Freshness: If the retrieved user information is displayed without being updated, a trigger should be set for concurrent changes (e.g., a Refresh action can be added).
Get User By ID is a basic action used to access a user's data based on their ID. It plays an effective role in user detail screens, form pre-filling, or user update operations. Thanks to its dynamic data source support, it can be easily integrated into different screens and components in a flexible manner.
