current user or Business group

Hi,

I'm building drop down list on user request. This drop down list take values from external action on VRO. The only problem is that the action is base on current user or his business group.

How can i get the current user (or better: Business group) of the requester? The users can be from active directory or locally on VRA.

Please help...

Thanks,

Anat

You can get the current user (requestedBy or requestedFor) and the Business Group by modifying the fields in the XaaS Action or Blueprint in vRA's GUI.  In vRA 7 it is under the Design tab. 

Here is a screenshot:

Then when you run this form in vRA you'll see something like this:
