Dynamic Dashboard report for logged in user

[Randy34]

I've created a Dashboard that includes several report widgets specific to me. I've been asked to share it with my team, but for that to be useful the report widget filters will need to be updated to return data specific to the user running the dashboard. Other posts suggest using "javascript:gs.getUserID()" with the Assigned To field, but that apparently isn't allowed in the filter as it does not allow free text, but only specific names from a dropdown list.

How do I create a report widget that returns dynamic data based on the logged-in user?

I think that's exactly what I needed. I've saved it in the filter, but when I run it, the filter is returning my name instead of "Me". I'm assuming that it will return the name of whoever is logged in. One step closer!

Hello Randy,

Yes, it will return name of logged in user.
