Locating the CAMID, for use when manually editing the XCAMUSER table.

Troubleshooting


Problem

Superuser wishes to associated Controller 'native' users with Cognos Analytics (CAM) users. This should ideally be done inside the Controller client GUI interface.
  • However, sometimes there is a valid reason why the customer would like to manually (outside of the Controller client GUI) edit the Controller database instead.
=> How can they find the correct CAMID to paste into the relevant row (for each user)?

Symptom

The SQL database has a constraint that the entry for CAMID cannot be 'null' (blank).
