Arcade function GetUser() not found

RandallBrown

How come using the Arcade function GetUser() in a WebMap popup expression I get the following error when testing the expression:

Execution Error:Runtime Error: Function Not Found: GetUser

See the function reference here:  https://developers.arcgis.com/arcade/function-reference/portal_functions/#getuser

I thought one of the cool things about Arcade was that the same code could be used in both desktop and web apps?

Thanks,

It depends on what Profile you're in. You can test things out in the Playground to see what functions are or are not available in each.

I can confirm that the function is indeed available and we use it in some of our Dashboards, but it's not going to show up in every single context.

It may also depend on what version desktop / Portal you're using, as GetUser was only introduced as of Pro 2.7 and Portal 10.9.
