Hi @darshan-pra ,
3rd one looks something like this where users can search using the emails along with names and it will show name and emails
if not
why not stick with a plain email field?
or better create a new field which shows up the selected users email
if you don't want an additional field just create Email field and valid if a valid user exist with the email
what's your business requirement
Please mark my answer as helpful/correct if it resolves your query.

since your user only wants to see then do this
1) create another text variable and use Auto populate feature to set the email based on Another variable which refers to sys_user
Auto-populate a variable based on a reference type variable (Utah)
If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Hi @darshan-pra
You can use dot-walking to access the email field from the Caller. If you select a user, the email will be auto-populated based on the same relationship.

HI @darshan-pra ,
you can do couple of things
1. make it a LookUp select box
and select label value = email
lookup value can be of your choice sysid or email
or
you can change the display value of user table email (I won't recommend)
or
you can show additional info like email using variable attributes to show email
put below in the variable attributes
ref_auto_completer=AJAXTableCompleter,ref_ac_columns=email,ref_ac_columns_search=true
Please mark my answer as helpful/correct if it resolves your query.

Chaitanya

the lookup select box as there are more than more than 2 lakh user applying the reference qualifier creating slowness in catalog and also lookup select box limit to 10000 only , second not feasible , 3rd is not working out
