Hi Everyone,
I am saving value of loggedinuser() function into cloud mysql db, but everytime it saves the "Administrator" instead of the my username. I test this function in expression rule where it gives my username.
Can anyone please help me out?

Hi,
This is normal behavior. If there is no user context, the function will return the "administrator" value. See below the extract from the documentation:
It is only applicable in situations where there is a user context, such as when rendering an interface, displaying a report, or executing a process task form. If there is no user context, such as when used in an expression in a node output, loggedInUser() returns "Administrator".
It highly depends what user you are trying to save in the db - is it the user that initiated a process or a user that acted on a process task? If it's the first, just use the pp!initiator parameter, if it's the second use the tp!owner parameter populated after a user task.
Thank you Alex, it worked now.
