HANA XS APLICATION with ANGULARJS -> How to get current user wihout SAPUI5 library?

[former_member280546]

I am currently developing a HANA XS application but I don't know how to get the current logged user. Is there any way to get this info without using any SAP Library?

Thanks for the answer!

The problem is solved. I am actually using the user API for this purpose.

I think you are talking about XS Classic, right? In that case you can define an XSJS service which uses $.session.getUsername() to get the XS session user. That XSJS service can be called with the Angular.js service $http for instance.
