Hi All,

Given a userId, which is stored in customField1, I need to get the user object back. What is the efficient way of achieving it and is there any shared component which can help with this?

Thanks,
Praveen...

...and after digging around bit more, I found 'User Search Expression' under shared component. forum.appian.com/.../summary

touser() takes 'username' and returns user object, but we want to pass 'customField1' instead of 'username' as the unique userid is stored in that field.
