Accessing the logged in User name in a workflow on server

[wwatson]

We have a use case where we want to use the logged in user name on server to restrict what a workflow shows them.

We don't want the extract the server's own user but the user name of the person logged in and use that in the workflow to filter the output.

In my case that would be my name as shown.

Does anyone know how to access the Alteryx server logged in user name from within a workflow?

I'm pretty sure the missing piece (at least the piece I was missing) is to ensure you select the 'Include Mongo _id Field' checkbox at the bottom of the configuration pane.
