SharePoint lists: Filter by [Me] attributes (eg, name/email), as opposed to just by '[Me]'

I've looked all over for this and can find no answer...is it possible to extract specific attributes from '[Me]'? Eg, the email/full name associated with [Me]? 

 

In some of my list filter logic, this could be very useful, since the 'Created by' / 'Modified by' field may not be a reliable way of getting rows relevant to the current user. 

 

Eg, 'Show rows in list XX only where email = [Me].email'.

Or,  'Show rows in list XX  only where name = [Me].name'.

 

Any help would be great! Cheers.

  • yamax87 Unfortunately, No. You cannot fetch individual attributes from [Me] like you mentioned.

     

    You can create a new person or group column apart from created by/modified by and applying filtering on this new person or group column based on [Me].
