The APEX /variable /APP_USER is used to indicate the current login name.
So, you will see it included in your APEX applications as the container
likely displaying the value under which user-credentials the application
is being accessed.
It is used typically as follows:
:APP_USER -bind variable form
&APP_USER. -- substitution form
You can additionally interrogate the current value using the "V" function:
V('APP_USER')

Hi All,
Today I've inherited an APEX application and I noticed that in the dads.conf file PlsqlDatabaseUsername is APP_USER (which is a database account used by the application) rather than APEX_PUBLIC_USER as I normally expect.
Whilst this works fine, I'm not that familiar with APEX: what would be the reason that a username other than APEX_PUBLIC_USER would be used to connect?
Thanks!
Charlotte
