Hi,
Use current.getUser() to get the current user object.
To get userID - getUserID()
For location - getLocation()
Ex. var user = gs.getUser(); //server side
var loc = user.getLocation();

e.g. 'employee' | var user_name = gs.getUserName(); |

e.g. 'Joe Employee' | var userDisplay = gs.getUserDisplayName(); |
| gs.getUserID() | Returns the sys_id string value for the currently logged-in user. | var userID = gs.getUserID(); |
