Hi Team,

Is there a option in Alteryx Designer Cloud to fetch username (user Login ID, email, ...) when one runs the workflow. I need this to maintain a run Logs.

Thanks

Does the Audit Logs Page have what you need?

Is this fixed? I think @alexnajm has provided quite a good way to get what you need

The objectif is to add the user id ot the output and store the information in a thirdparty database. 

Is there any similar function like : GetEnvironmentVariable("USERNAME")

There is not an equivalent function that I am aware of - I thin your best bet is to check the audit logs and see if you can get the data out in an automated way into your third party database

 

Otherwise ask Support - good luck!
