Is it possible to get the user name of the client with a tag event script (Value changed) ??? I tried to access to [System]Client tag but no success. Same by calling a shared script doing same thing.

> I want to log the user name of a specific client in a transaction group. The username to be logged is from a different client than the one it is being captured in. Multiple people can login into the client to be monitored, so I want to know who is currently logged in and document it. Is that possible? Thanks
