Hi Hiral, If the 'user' variable has the user Id as a String, you could try the following to get the Principal:
JackrabbitSession js = (JackrabbitSession) session; UserManager userMgr = session.getUserManager(); Authorizable user = userMgr.getAuthorizable(userId); Principal principal = user.getPrincipal(); You can then use the principal object with AccessControlUtils. Hope this helps.
