Add logged in user's first name to a text field

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 42

Hi,


This is probably very basic, but I am just starting out with Power Pages. 

 

I have set up local authentication, and there is a landing page people get to once they are authenticated. 

 

I have a text line which says "Welcome, " - I want to simply put the logged in user's First Name after the space and comma, as a welcome message. How can I do this?

 

Thanks

LM.

    Knew I'd have to jump into VS. 🙂 Many thanks.

    Hi @LostMary,

     

    every logged in user has a User Object which you can access with Liquid.

    I think all you need is mentioned here: https://debajmecrm.com/how-to-get-current-user-details-in-power-pages-power-apps-portals/
