You could try adding a hidden html input having a liquid notation as value {{user.id}} like this then just get the value of this field with a js/jquery.

<input id="userID" style="display:none" type="text" value="{{user.id}}" />

Hope this solve your question.

Please ignore I got it, in case if any one needed it quite direct if you are using contact to login on Portal 365-

{{ user.parentcustomerid.id}}

To use inside JQuery: var accountId = '{{ user.parentcustomerid.id}}';

If you want to get this from the outside(fe angular app hosted in powerapps portals) you can find this on:

let userId = window.parent["Microsoft"]["Dynamic365"]["Portal"]["User"]["contactId"];
(there is one additional property "name" on user which is the username of the (contact)user but with the id you can get the additional details if needed.

(when unauthenticated the user object will still be initialized but with empty values on said properties)

I suggest you inspect window.parent["Microsoft"] to see what other variables are available to you.
