How to get the userId of currently logged user in salesforce?

Hi Kapil,

You can get the ID’s of all the currently logged in users by using this global function: UserInfo.getUserId().

Thanks

Hi,

You can use userinfo class in apex to obtain the information related to logged in user.

You can get Id using userinfo.getUserId() and if userinfo class is not able to provide info use query to query those fields .

On VF you will need to use

<apex:outputText value="{!$User.Id}">
You are using outputfield and hence you are not able to save the code

Edit::

A sample getter setter User object type variable will be handy

public class MailExtension{
public user currentuser{get;set;}
public MailExtension(ApexPages.StandardController cont){
opp =(Opportunity) cont.getRecord();
currentuser=new User();
currentuser=[Select Id,Name,Email from User where Id=:userinfo.getuserId()];
}
}
A sample VF tag or mark up will be as follows

<apex:outputfield value="{!currentuser.Id}"/>
<apex:outputfield value="{!currentuser.Email}"/>

Hope this helps you.
