Hi Curt,

I read this post because I am too looking for a Get MacAddress's routine. But my need is to don't allow some users to use the application out of the enterprise neither by smartphone. Then, one of possibility would be register the maccadress with the profile user, and check this after login.

Thanks,

As stated in my previous post, I don’t know any way that a user application could get a MAC address.  I can’t think if any completely effective way of doing what you want.

I see Curt. And the same with the machine serial number?

Hi, I have done this before.

Yes you can get wifi mac address. 

I used wifi mac address to locate user's position inside building with the help of a bunch of Cisco Meraki wifi access point.

Cisco Meraki will scan all devices nearby with wifi ON (even if device not connected to access point), record device wifi mac address and signal strengh.

After that, all of scanning data will be sent to Meraki Cloud and processed. Meraki Cloud will triangulate device wifi signal with all of access points scanning data. 

In the end, I got data with mac address, latitude, longitude, apFloor (configure in each access point) and some other useful info like the brand of device, their wifi chip brand, etc. 

Let me have few minutes to dig my old project, how do I acquired wifi mac address. 

Hi, I used this little plugin my colleague made for me.

It's a cordova plugin, you need to publish it first (it will saved under Independent Modules).

Add it as dependency in your app, then you can call getMacAddress client action from this plugin.

However, this will not work in Outsystems Now.

You have to generate native APK for android or IPA for iphone.

I suggest you test using Android device first, because it's easier to generate APK and test it.

Dear Harlin,

Thank you very much by your help. I will follow the recomendations. I have a question: this solution works in a web application ?

Best Regards,

Roberto

No, it's for mobile app only.
