Get Current User in Script Runner custom email

[Hemanshu Sood]

Hi, I am trying to design a custom script runner email as a post function. I need to include current user's name or last person's name who triggered this action. 

How to do that in Script Runner Email body?

I have tried:

${currentUser.displayName} but it does not work in email

Please help

Hi Hermanshu,

even though its been almost three years ago I thought I'd reply anyway. I was searching for the same and found the following solution:

<% out << com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser().getDisplayName()%>

Cheers, Manuel.
