g_user object is not defined error

[manikandanvelu]

I am trying to get the current user name in my widget's client script, When I try to use 'g_user.firstName' I'm getting this error g_user not defined in the console.

Can anyone share a sample code to get the current username in client script.

Thanks in advance.

Hey Manikandan,

Maybe it's too late, Serviceportal provides an angular service to get information of the current user. Please check out this blog GlideUser/g_user in ServicePortal

Kindly mark correct/helpful if this has answered your question.

Thanks,
