Hi @Akki1,

 

Get users sys_id in client side scripts using - g_user.userID

 

Take a look at nice article -

User Object Cheat Sheet 

 

Thanks,

The world works with ServiceNow

@Sagar Pagar This returns sys_id. I want the userID/username

@Akki1 , If you are talking about sys_client_script, Please use g_user.userID

@Fazal Mohammad This returns sys_id and not userid
