Hi @Uthman ,

Where do you want to auto populate Native view or catalog item?

You can set default value to:

javascript&colon; gs.getUserID();

Thanks

Set the Default Value to javascript&colon;gs.getUserID()

.gs.getUserID() gets the Sys ID of the currently logged-in user

@Uthman

Below approaches

1) Recommended - Default value in dictionary

javascript&colon; gs.getUserID();

OR

2) If field is on form then you can use onLoad client script

g_form.setValue('opened_by', g_user.userID);

OR

3) Display business rule on your table

current.opened_by = gs.getUserID();

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.
