How to get User object from using Access token

ShaileshMoolya

Hi, How to get user info object second time after login. (using C# ) Scenario: First Time starting the app i login normally and store the access Token in DB as it is valid till 24 hr. But in a min or so i encounter a bug in my application and restart my app after fixing it. but i have to relogin ever time again and again while testing and bug fixing as the User Object is readonly and is received only while login. Is there a way or function that returns user object using accesstoken. GetProfile function doesn't return user object.

You will have to store access token in a shared preference or external file and use that value while initializing object.
Make sure not to call generate session in every run then your issue will be resolved.

Yes i do store access token but then when restarted the app which function should i call which returns "User" object.
Only function i know that returns "User" object is the generate session function.

Serialize the whole user object via built in

• Serializer
  
• Store it in a file. Then When required read it back via File etc.
  
• Then
  
• De-Serialize
  

and pass in the

Dictionary<string, dynamic>

to User Constructor


This is to give you general idea about it and is most simplistic. if nothing else is working for you.

thanks for responding.

i tried this method previously but it was giving errors. but solved it.
whenever i tried converting it all the list in the user object (eg. bids and offers) were inherently treated as a List. But for User object constructor to work these list should be arraylist. this solved my errors. hope this helps other how are getting this error like me.
