Automation - Record actual user

Julie Barbeau

Hi, is there a way in the automation to record the actual user when a change triggers the workflow. Same as Record a date, I would like to ''Record actual user'' in a contact column when a row meets a condition.

Example : if Row is modified, record the actual user in the column CONTACT.

Hi @Julie Barbeau

I hope you're well and safe!

Unfortunately, as far as I know, it's not possible now, but it's an excellent idea!

Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.

Here's a possible workaround or workarounds

• Please have a look at my post below with a method I developed.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!
