Hi,

You can follow below steps to auto populate the Requested For details with logged in User.

1. Navigate and open the variable which you need to auto-populate
2. In the variable declaration there is a tab labeled 'Default Value'
3. Set the default value to javascript:gs.getUserID();
4. Save the record.
   
   Also to populate the user details you need to write a onchange client script and pull the details from the requested For.
   
   
   Hope this Helps..!!!
   
   Thanks

Hi rajachodisetti, 

In your field that is a reference of sys_user table, add as a default value 'javascript: gs.getUserID()'. This will get the current user, then the other variables can be auto-populated from dictionary definition as follows:

With this the value will be automatically updated without any scripting.
For contact media field use the same as first one, default value 'string_value' and will be automatically selected.
