Flow designer to update assigned_to using gs.getUserID()

[Sam Motley]

Hi All, 

Hope today finds you well 🙂 

Hopefully a simple one but strangley cannot find anything about it outside of this thread but doesn't help me as i cannot use an action script...https://www.servicenow.com/community/it-service-management-forum/flow-designer-set-logged-in-user-in...

I'm trying to set the assigned_to field to the user who runs my flow, i have the flow to run as the person who initiates it, but the field does not populate. The idea is the first advisor to respond to an email and update the ticket gets that ticket assigned to them...Any ideas? 

Thanks all,

Hi 

in the inline script of your update action just write

return gs.getUserID();

Try replacing

var assignedto  = fd_data.trigger.current.gs.getUserID();

with

var assignedto  = gs.getUserID();
