getenv('Username') in WebApp Alternative

Hi,

I have an WebApp running on a server. My question is, whether I can find out the windows user name of the user of the WebApp. The user is of course not the user of the server.

The function getenv('Username') like in local apps is not possible.

Could you please help me finding an alternative solution for getting the user name of the user of the WebApp?

Kind regards

Hi C.K,

I understand that you want to find the user information of user logged into Web App server. Starting from R2022a you can use “compiler.UserInfo()” to retrieve the details of user logged into Web App server.

Please refer to the following MATLAB documentation

Hi Praveen,

thank you for your answer, which sounds very good. I will try it out this week.
