# Show User

## Description

The showuser part provides functionality to access user-management in your application.

## Use

User authentication and authorization is managed via the LogicNets Logon-system application. When user is authenticated and authorized an user profile is generated. This user profile can be used in the application to provide / deny access to certain parts of your application.

The show\_user part can be used in form/form-parts-nodes and in process nodes. When it is used in form/form-part-nodes it shows a welcome text for logged in users (with links to logout and manage their account) and a login-link when no user is logged in so far. The usage in a process node can be used when an application has an own UI and requires functionality to logon / logout users or manage the current user account.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://community-test.logicnets.com/release-9/platform-documentation/process-node-parts/show-user.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
