How can we get the current user?

[driftgod99]

If two people are using the same custom board (React App), how can we get information for each user? We want to figure out which one is a member of the workspace, and which is a guest? I wasn’t too sure how the board could access this info using the Monday sdk. Thanks!

Hi @driftgod99, you can get the user id by using the sessionToken value from the SDK.

You can look at the query here - https://github.com/mondaycom/monday-sdk-js#mondaygettype-params--

To add on to what Mitchell said, you can also use our API’s “me” field to return the current user’s information. Here is an example: { me { id name } }
