  • 1.  Display Email ID of Current User in a formula field

    Posted 11-11-2020 09:51
    Hi all,

    If I create a Formula User field  and give User(), it gives me USer Name of the Current Login Screen;

    What if I want the Current User Email id in a formula field? How Can I get it


    Say, suppose If I'm logged in, a formula field should show me vivekvishwanath1000@gmail.com

    Your field type is still formula-user, you will need to change the type to formula-text or formula-email in order to save it with the user to email conversion
