Accessing the company field of a user using the g_user element

[vivek4346]

Hi all,

I am new to service now and have been exploring the platform. I wanted to know if there was a way to access a variable called 'company' present for every user, using the g_user method.

Regards,

Vivek

When you say variable? you have a variable referenced to sys_user table and from here you want to fetch the company?

Hi Harish,

Yes, each user from the sys_user table has a company.

Hello Vivek,

Nothing OOTB at the client side. However at server side you can get the current logged in user's company sys_id as

gs.getUser().getCompanyID()

You can create a script include and return back the response at client side with the usage of GlideAjax. More info here.
