How can you display the full name of a client on the screen?

I could only show the user with the following:  
System]Client/User/Username

In Vision:

- Use a client startup script to write the full name to a client taq. Reference the tag anywhere you like.

```python
userName = system.security.getUsername()
user = system.user.getUser("", userName)
system.tag.writeBlocking(['[client]fullName'], [user.get('firstname') + " " + user.get('lastname')])

```

In Perspective:

```auto
{session.props.auth.user.firstName} + ' ' + {session.props.auth.user.lastName}

```
