Current User Element Properties

The Current User element can be added to another element (such as a text box ) so that a form field is automatically populated with the name of the current user (i.e., the person currently filling out the form).

For example, you may have a Requester field that you want to automatically populate with the name of the person filling out the form. You can do this with the Current User element.
