I know, the answer is probably blatantly obvious but it escapes me.....
for a wrapper function around the REST interface I want to know what user logged in with the REST interface, how do I do that?

i suspect u'll need to write a custom api function for this (we need to allow folks to add their own api's)

basically check the session and retrieve userID (contactID) and ufID (CMS user id) for the logged in REST user

I was writing my own API, but my $user was empty....however, it is a new morning, the sun is up and I'll have another play :-)

Solved it by adding a little code to the Utils/REST.php:

Code: [Select]

        $username = CRM_Core_DAO::getFieldValue('CRM_Contact_DAO_Contact',
                $valid_user, 'display_name', 'id');
