OSUser() not updating with user

[JQ123]

Hi,

I have an app that in various places shows the value of OSUser() 

This works correctly for myself, the owner of the app. 

After I publish it and other users use the app the value of OSUser() stays as my own userID and domain.

How is this possible and how can I fix this so their userID and domain i.e the value of OSUser() for the user using the app shows.

Thanks,

Jamie

Hi, it should show the user connected. Are you using =OSUser() inside the chart?

If in eaxmaple you load OsUSer() in a variable and you use the variable it will show the last loaded value, that might be your user.

Hi,

I am using it in a table in the load script

USER_TEST_1:
Load
OSUser();

And as a variable (to test the issue)

Both show the incorrect user. 

But from what you are saying I think having it in the load script will also show the incorrect value?

Hi, in the load script it will load a value and that value would be static. Just add a text box or a table with a measure with =OsUser() to check if it changes.

Hi,

Thanks, I was using the value of OSUser() instead of OSUser() the function. It doesn't show the incorrect USER ID now,  though it just shows the USERID as '-' . Is this correct for the qlikview.test account?

Hi, sorted it now, test user showing correctly., forgot the '()' thanks for your help!
