Event Hub: Identifying the Originating Request - Sitefinity - Front- & Back-End Development

Hi,

I'm using the EventHub events RoleAssigned and RoleUnassigned in some custom integration code to sync user data from Sitefinity to another system.

When I update a role for a user through my integration code the event fires and when I update a role for a user in Sitefinity the event fires.

Is there any way to determine where the originating request to Assign/Unassign a role came from, my custom code or from the Sitefinity UI?

Thanks,
Steve

Hello Steve,

Unfortunately the eventInfo does not carry such information, so I would suggest to use the UrlReferrer in order to determine where from the request is coming form.

var source = HttpContext.Current.Request.UrlReferrer.AbsolutePath

This way you can get the page from which this has been invoked.

Thanks Pavel,

That is what I am using now but I was hoping for a more graceful method.

Thanks again,
Steve
