Hi,

Kindly refer the following URL. 

https://developer.servicenow.com/dev.do#!/reference/api/washingtondc/client/c_GlideUserAPI

Using the GlideUser API you will be able to access the current user and current user roles.

For eg, In the client script you may use the following methods to retrieve the values.

g_user.userID ---- to retrieve the current logged in user's user id - Where you will be able to set the user automatically to the user field as the default value.

Thanks!
