I tried this: #global.project.getUserService().getUser().getLoginName() but this returns "SYSTEM".
Why? What I would like to have is the current user.

I want to retrieve currently logged in user name

Write a executable where you get the current user.

The ClientScriptContext has a method "getUser".

but unfortunately my complete code is written in HTML o/p channel.

Hi,

getting the user during generation time is not possible as the generation is not user/session specific. For example, the generated files are cached in the preview for a while, so it is not even guaranteed that a preview generation is performed at all when a user calls a preview page.

Could you describe your use case in more detail?

Hi Michael

We require only login user name in content creator. currently we're getting only "SYSTEM" with following API.
#global.project.getUserService().getUser().getLoginName()
#global.project.getUserService().getUser().getEMail()
#global.project.getUserService().getUser().getName()
#global.project.getUserService().getUser().getLDAPSection()

Hi Tanmay,

could you explain the purpose / scenario why and when you need the user name in CC? Maybe there is another solution than trying to use template syntax (which will not be successful).

Hi,

write a executable like that

public final synchronized Object execute(Map<String, Object> params) {
     ClientScriptContext context = params.get("context");
     Map<String, String> returnMap = params.get("returnMap");
     User user = context.getUser();
     returnMap.put("userName", user.getLoginName());
}

This executable is callable from a FirstSpirit Script and also with WE_API.

kind regards
