    Hi frardouin,

    You can use the folllowing v2 query to get the current logged user info:

     

     

    <#assign userInfo = rest("2.0", "/search?q=" + "Select * from users where id = '${user.id}'"?url).data.items />

<#list userInfo as getInfo>
<span>${getInfo.first_name}</span>
<span>${getInfo.last_name}</span>
<span>${getInfo.login}</span>
<span>${getInfo.avatar.profile}</span>
</#list>

     Let me know if it works for you.

     

    Thanks,

Does this make sense?

 

<!-- display the avatar of current logged user -->
<#assign avatar_url = rest("users/id/" + user.id + "/profiles/avatar?restapi.response_format=json").image.url![]/>
<img src="${avatar_url}" alt="user-avatar">

<!-- display the login name -->
<a href="/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/${user.id}">${user.login}</a>
