Hi all,

I would like to have a way to capture the user currently logged into WxO and the name of the WxO agent to pass to a tool during runtime as a header variable.

Is that possible?

As depending on the variable passed in, I can let the tool to behave differently, right now I couldn't do this, the one that is the closest is via Connection, but Connection also cannot tell the current logged in WxO user and current WxO agent name.

Thanks

Hello, see this section of the ADK doc on how to enable context access: https://developer.watson-orchestrate.ibm.com/agents/build_agent#providing-access-to-context-variables

You have user & tenant info but not agent name from what I can see. Please document a new req with use-case details if you want to see more @ https://watson-orchestrate.ideas.ibm.com/

Thanks!
