Can you get the user whose action triggered a workflow as a variable in the workflow

I have a workflow that is triggered on assign. Is there a way to get the user who did the assigning and thus triggered the workflow? I am not seeing anything after a first pass.

 

Regards

    Hi,

    You can get the details from a custom workflow assembly.  Here's code that you'll write:

    and then you can reference that user in the rest of your workflow.

    Hope his helps! I'd appreciate if you'd mark this as Answering your question/.

    Thanks,

     Aiden
