Welcome message with username on page

[Mike Bell]

In cloud is there a way to have any random Confluence page dynamically display the actively logged in user's First name? I was looking for something along the lines of a shortcut or something. Just like the good old %username% from Windows.

Looking for some easy way to have "Welcome to the IT Support Page Richard!" Something like that.

Thanks,

Mike

It seems you can not do this directly on the cloud without creating a connected app.

Another Cloud disappointment.

Thanks for your efforts.
