&lt;br /&gt;
I think while creating a new user in the appian we dont have the option to fill the middle name. But you can use the user function to fetch the middle name for the user as we have the property for fetching the middle name&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
user(loggedInUser(),&amp;quot;middleName&amp;quot;)&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: i need to populate middlename of an user</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/52419?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 08 Feb 2018 11:02:44 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:5a77ff8f-3058-4a27-93e6-99a78801407d</guid><dc:creator>Amit Mishra</dc:creator><description>Yes, I checked and found that under designer People tab, user&amp;#39;s Middle Name appears as disable. But, under Admin console User&amp;#39;s tab, there is no middle name to update/enter while creating new user as well. I guess, Appian remove middle name attribute. So, Use customField1, customField2 etc..

You can use custom Fields for any business define attribute, Check user() function and use &amp;quot;customField&amp;quot; and same you can update/populate.&lt;br /&gt;
Hope, this will help you out.

&lt;br /&gt;
You can use smart service a!updateUserProfile to achieve this.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: i need to populate middlename of an user</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/52382?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 07 Feb 2018 16:43:52 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:359d292d-653d-418a-a7fc-f85b5cd05405</guid><dc:creator>Piyush Agarwal</dc:creator><description>Hi Vivek,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My requirement is to update the User&amp;#39;s Middle name without using the Process Model.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&amp;#39;t see the option in admin console under User tab to update it. It has First name &amp;amp; Last name only.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: i need to populate middlename of an user</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/52375?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 07 Feb 2018 15:45:53 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:acfb6c3b-569a-426f-b016-7dab1bd93a19</guid><dc:creator>viveku3486</dc:creator><description>Hi Piysuh,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Your requirement is not that clear but according to what you have mentioned, I think you can use the split() function for this. Below is the code which will help you&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
local!name:&amp;quot;Piyush Kumar Agarwal&amp;quot;, /*You can enter variable name here which contains name*/&lt;br /&gt;
local!reframe:split(local!name,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;),&lt;br /&gt;
local!middleName:local!rreframe[2]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This will return &amp;quot;Kumar&amp;quot; which is ur middle name&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: i need to populate middlename of an user</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/52373?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 07 Feb 2018 15:19:25 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:5fec1bea-c1dc-4ba9-894e-65fffdc72766</guid><dc:creator>Piyush Agarwal</dc:creator><description>though i can do it via process model and use Update user profile..but is there any other way.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
