    you can get user name and userid and security roles of the user from context.userSettings.

    context.userSettings.userName

     

    However, if you need other user attributes, you may need to use context.webapi.retrieve to query uer entity with userid

    Hi @ThareLyn :

    User's info is available under context.userSettings. 

    I think this link will help you a lot:

    Context
