Hi,
If you want it in a workflow, you can get the Executing User id and return an entity reference to the System User entity.
Hat tip to Guido (http://www.crmanswers.net/2013/10/get-current-user-inside-workflow.html)
public class GetCurrentUser : CodeActivity { [Output("Current User")] [ReferenceTarget("systemuser")] public OutArgument<EntityReference> CurrentUser { get; set; } protected override void Execute(CodeActivityContext context) { IWorkflowContext workflowContext = context.GetExtension<IWorkflowContext>(); CurrentUser.Set(context, new EntityReference("systemuser", workflowContext.InitiatingUserId)); } }
Hope this helps! I'd appreciate if you'd mark this as Answering your question.
Thanks,
Aiden
The requirement is I see an error in the plugin tracer log and need to see who that user is so I can determine the security so they can execute the plugin.
Is there an easier way?
If it's just for reference, I think you can export a list of system users and just look to see what the ID is in Excel. If you want to do it programatically, you can do a Retrieve on system user, using the ID from your log. That will give you back the user and all the details for them.
