Hi @ThareLyn :

User's info is available under context.userSettings. 

I think this link will help you a lot:

Context 

UserSettings 

In addition,you can also refer to this post:

you can get user name and userid and security roles of the user from context.userSettings.

context.userSettings.userName

However, if you need other user attributes, you may need to use context.webapi.retrieve to query uer entity with userid
