How to get the ID of the user who is logged into the current session?

I need to find the user who is logged into the current session. I tried the following but does not work: Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance!

$.get(CurrentServerAddress + '/service/v4/rest.php', {
    method: "get_user_id",
    input_type: "JSON",
    response_type: "JSON",
    rest_data:'"new_get_user_id":["session":"' + SugarSessionId + '"]'
}, function(data) {
    if (data !== undefined) {
        var userID = jQuery.parseJSON(data);
    }
});

I tried the following and it works for me.

var userID = '';
    $.get(CurrentServerAddress + '/service/v4/rest.php', {
        method: "get_user_id",
        input_type: "JSON",
        response_type: "JSON",
        rest_data: '[{"session":"' + SugarSessionId + '"}]'
    }, function(data) {
        if (data !== undefined) {
            userID = jQuery.parseJSON(data);
        }
    });

The REST call that you are making requires that you have a SESSION token. Normally, we will setup a REST user on our CRM's that can be accessed via REST.

'authenticated_user_id'

As far as I'm aware that is the sugar crm item in session which you should be looking for, are you requesting that?
