There is a user object on scope that has a lot of the logged in user's data.

In the HTML you can just use "user.x" and for the client controller make sure to push in $scope and you can then use $scope.user.x

Hi zhian,

If you look at the screenshot that I posted earlier the fields that are references have two correlating properties. One property displays the sys_id of the referenced record and the other one displays the display value of the record. It's indicated by the suffix of "_dv" at the end of the property name.

So to show the display value of the department it would be user.department_dv instead of user.department.
