How to get current user infomation/context within adaptive cards spfx?

Question

Build your first SharePoint Adaptive Card Extension

I am following the tutorials/docs in above link and I have created my first ACE. However, I can't see in the docs or by googling, how to get the current user context.

Can anybody point me in the right direction, please?

Answer 1

You can get the current user details from this.context in HelloWorldAdaptiveCardExtension.ts.

For example:

I have this code in onInit() method:

let userEmail: string = this.context.pageContext.user.email;

You can also check this sample which uses current user details in ACE (line no. 48): Hybrid Work Employee Check-in from Adaptive Card Extension
