Syntax

CurrentUserName() 

Arguments

Examples

The following formula will validate if the Assignee user by name is the logged in user.

[Assignee].CurrentMember.Name = CurrentUserName()

See the report example Issues created vs resolved by priority in our Demo account. The calculated member Support and current assignee in dimension Assignee uses the formula above to retrieve a logged in user by name. The formula for Support and current assignee will work for cases when currently logged in user should see assigned issues and issues assigned to some specific user. You can select this calculated member on Pages to filter issues a user should work on. 

Another example would be finding the current user in the new user-picker Jira custom field once it is imported in eazyBI cube. In this case, the user picker Jira custom field is called "Author" and is imported as dimension in eazyBI

[Author].[Author].Getmemberbykey(
  CurrentUserName()
)
