var UserId = Xrm.Page.context.getUserId();
var UserName = Xrm.Page.context.getUserName();
alert(UserId + " " + UserName);
}

Hi Ben,
Please try this globalContext.userSettings.userId and globalContext.userSettings.userName – https://carldesouza.com/dynamics-365-client-api-changes-globalcontext/
Hello
That method works to create a function that returns me values that the user has in his id and to be able to use them to iron them in fields of the entity that he is working on?
