User name by default in editor field value.

BalaKrishnanDhanuskodi

Happy Morning All,

Trying to built an issue log within the developing system using datatable, so an exclusive issue manger table is created and incorporated.

Please find the exhibit on screen where I need to insert user details by default.

Tried and understood 'ipOps' and I assume this is only for "type:select" is there something similar for "type:text".

Wishing you Most and more...
Bala.

Hi BalaTest, If you have access to the users name, I think that you can set it in the initCreate event. Like

  editor.on('initCreate', function (e) {
     editor.field("myField").val(userName); 
  });

Or maybe in the def property of your field object like

 {
      label: "Issue Raised By :",
      name: "IssueRaiser",
      def: username
},

Personally, if the user's name is a global variable and you are using REST I like to set it in the data of the create

  ajax: {
     create: {
        type: 'POST',
        url: 'createIssueMethodUrl',
        data: { "UserName": userName}
      }
  }

Thanks Shay for various options,

I was comfortable with

{
      label: "Issue Raised By :",
      name: "IssueRaiser",
      def: username
},

Works perfect...
