Parse Cloud Code User Validation

Question

I want to validate an iOS user calling a Cloud Code function.

Parse.Cloud.define("sayMyName", function(request, response) {
  var user = request.user; 
  console.log(user);
  response.success("Your name is: " + user.get("name"));
)};

However this always brings up undefined. There doesn't seem to be any documentation about this, and it is Parse specific, so my hands are kind of tied.

Within Cloud Code, how do I determine which user is calling the function?

Answer 1

and make sure user has name as key.
