Then you need to provide more details. I was assuming this is in Activiti Explorer?
If so, then the authenticated user is set as above. Where are you calling this code?

Hi all,
I have the same error,
when i test "System.out.println("logger is:"+ Authentication.getAuthenticatedUserId()); " in a class test (activiti-designer), i get null.
Or should this work just in explorer when log in ?

Regards.

Hello,

I have the same issue, but in a custom application, I handle this using Spring aspects, all the interaction with the activiti API is done in a Service Bean, creating a loginAspect before each execution ensures the authentication authenticatedUserId is set,

<code>

@Aspect
public class LoginAspect {

@Before("execution(* com.company.WfService.*(..))")
public void logBefore(JoinPoint joinPoint){
log.info("Starting Checking authentification");

//Se registra el usuario
String wfUserName = Authentication.getAuthenticatedUserId();

String auth = get current logged user….

if ( wfUserName != null && wfUserName.compareTo(auth.getUsername()) != 0 ){
   Authentication.setAuthenticatedUserId(auth.getUsername());
}else if ( wfUserName == null ){
   Authentication.setAuthenticatedUserId(auth.getUsername());
}

}

}

</code>
