Getting a user's recently visited items

I had a comment posted in another blog (Agile PX – Creating an Agile PLM Process Extension ) from Akshay who wanted to know how to get items from the Recently Visited and Navigator panes in the web client. They figured out Recently Visited items, but not Navigator. Navigator doesn’t appear to be persisted, so there is little help I can offer, but I thought readers may be interested in knowing how to get the Recent items.

The process flow is pretty simple:

Get the IUser of interest
Get the recently visited IFolder
Iterate over the IAgileObjects in the IFolder

recent visits

Here’s the Code

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        
        AgileSessionFactory factory = AgileSessionFactory.getInstance(agileURL);
        
        HashMap params = new HashMap();
        params.put(AgileSessionFactory.USERNAME, agileUsername);
        params.put(AgileSessionFactory.PASSWORD, agilePassword);
        session = factory.createSession(params);
    
        IUser me = session.getCurrentUser();
        IFolder folder = me.getFolder(FolderConstants.TYPE_RECENT_VISIT);
        ITwoWayIterator iterator = folder.getFolderIterator();
        
        IAgileObject visit;
        
        while (iterator.hasNext()) {
            visit = (IAgileObject) iterator.next();
            System.out.println(visit.getName());
        }
}
