Hi,

Use the below code in the email script

var userObject = gs.getUser().getUserByID('UserID');//UserID is the employee id you need to enter

template.print(userObject.userObject.getFirstName());

Call the email script in the notification body where you want the name.

Hi @Mehar Naaz1 

Use this code below

var userObject = gs.getUser().getUserByID('current.sys_created_by');

template.print(userObject.userObject.getFirstName());

call the email script in Notification wherever you want the name to be visible.

For example if the name of script is abcd, so call it by ${mail_script:abcd}

Hi,

You can add it as below

Navigate to the email in question and just add the below where you need the employee name

${caller_id.first_name}

You can even select the field using the tree on the right side
