How to get the build creator

Question

I would like to get in a build activity the build creator.

Is it possible to get them from the CodeActivityContext?

How can i do this?

Answer 1

You can get IBuildDetail object for build from context extensions (or pass it to activity as argument)

context.GetExtension<IBuildDetail>()

Properties from there will provide what you need
