Determining the Current Logged-in User

To view the identity of the current logged-in user, see the name at the top of the dashboard in the BUI, or use the whoami command in the CLI.

  1. In the BUI, the full name of the user is shown to the left of the Logout button at the top of the dashboard.
    Full Name@hostname

    If a full name was not provided for the user, then no user identification is shown:

    hostname

    The full name might also appear in the tab of your browser.

  2. In the CLI, the whoami command returns the login name of the user.
    hostname:> whoami
    loginname
