Hello Community!
We have started to get into more and more complex logic where one of our challenges is determining who is running a workflow not just afterward, but while the workflow is being run.
We have some processes (usually for security reasons) where we want to understand who is running the workflow and use that to determine what happens with the workflow. In our ideal world, it would be something we can reference easily like the Workflow Constants so it would be something like %Engine.RunAsUser%.
An example of this is we want to determine if that person has access to write to our data lake through our data lake APIs - but to do that we need to pass in the person's employee ID. We don't want to ask the employee for that ID through Interface tools because that isn't secure (Employee A could put Employee B's ID).
I have a potential solution of using the _cloud:UserId value to get someone's User ID then joining that up with the users table within Mongo but wanted to see if anyone has found a simpler solution.
