I tried a quick test on cloud.  Added this line to the script:

LET vUser = OSUser();

After the reload, added two text boxes on the front end:

=OSUser()
=vUser

Both worked, that is the function worked both on the front end and in the script.

Thanks Michael - unfortunately that doesn't seem to work - the function is not recognized. Do you know if it should?
