Getting User ID of the logged in user through API

[Arun.Prasad]

Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to check if we have any API calls to get the User ID of the logged in user through the session token. Suppose, if user 'A' is logged into Archer, use the session token of user 'A' to get the User ID of 'A'. Is it possible? I did go through the API documentation, but couldn't find any such methods or samples. Any thoughts here? Thanks.

OK. I was able to get the User ID without the API call through the custom JavaScript code.

var a = parent.parent.ArcherApp.globals.userId;‍‍

But any thoughts on API calls are welcome.

Exactly, global variables are the way:
