Hi @divyareddyp2,

please provide more details.

Because it will depend on location where you want to get it...

For example currently logged in user:

in portal (frontend) > g_user.userName;
- e.g. catalog client script
in backend (backend) > gs.getUserID();
- e.g. business rule

And for the date and time, please refer to GlideDateTime, GlideDateTime - Global or Glide Server APIs

Thank you for accepting my solution.

Hi @divyareddyp2 ,

Can you specify where you want to pick these value - On form (Client), In any Business Rule , Scriopt include (Server side). As current logged in user in client script can be found using g_user class's method while on backend you can use Glide system class's Methods.
