How to find UserName in a custom visual

I'm building a custom visual and I need to identify the logged in user's email. How can I do it? Thanks

Power BI Custom Visuals API does not provide user name or user email.

We recommend to use DAX function to get user's email.

is this still the case or are there other ways to get the username/-email within the visual and without passing it from outside the visual?
