Hi Ramith, AFAIU , there can not be any anonymous users in our system. If it is from Stratos, there should be a user or Admin user which booted up or responsible for that action. If if it from AppFactory, then AFAIU it is the admin task of the app factory. So, Is it not possible to use the admin user of Stratos or Appfactory for above use case.
Basically the reason behind the above statement is, if we try to cater the feature of not providing the user name for MB, it will open a huge set of issues since we need to manage permissions for the users of MB .
