@shahid_khan021

@jsukrut, the return of “frappe.db.get_value(“User”,{“name”:frappe.session.user},“full_name”)” is an object. Do you know how to parse the object to get the full name as a string? Thanks!

I think it will return ‘unicode’ .like <type ‘unicode’>

If you have object then you can access properties with ‘.’ (member operator)

eg.
user_doc = frappe.get_doc(“User”,name)
print user_doc.first_name
print user_doc.last_name

for typecast

str(user_doc.last_name)

How about getting the password of the session?

you can’t access password through get_doc. What is your use case?
