PnP Modern Search. Filter Current user

Question

I would like to be able to display list results to users that only contain their name. I have 2 possible ways I think this can be done, but not sure how.

In the Query template section, I have https://site.sharepoint.com/sites/site/Lists/listname/.

But I cant use the URL that has a custom user view. Is this possible? e.g. https://site.sharepoint.com/sites/site/Lists/listname/Current-User.aspx

OR my second choice is using the Refinement filters. I have tried using Title:equals(userName). But does not work. I do have the Title field filled out with the username.

Is it even possible to filter results based on who's logged in? Thanks

You can get display name of currently logged in user using either of below tokens:

1. {User} or
2. {User.Name}.

You can also get the Email and other properties from user profile.

Check more information & available properties at: User Tokens.

You can use these tokens to match it with your Title column in the SharePoint list.
