Domo User Name

Hello, maybe a silly question

 

domo.env.userId
 
This line gets the id for a Domo User, but how can I get the User Name?
I'm recreating DP19 Advanced App Building Exercise and I'd like my app to have the username instead of the id, this will be helpful for when I create custom apps for my company
 
Thanks in advance

    Got the answer. Just needed to play a little with where I wanted to get this value.

     

    Also, I had to re publish my app, as trying to replace userId with userName gave me several bugs, I decided to add a column in my collection so it saves userId AND userName in separate fields

     

    domo.get('/domo/users/v1/' + domo.env.userId + '?includeDetails=true').then(function(me){
        ByWho=me.displayName;
    });

    I hope this helps someone else in the Community
