Additional Information

This is as designed. If the feature layer is shared with everyone (public), no user name is stored. Sharing the feature layer with everyone provides anonymous users the ability to edit the layer and therefore the user name is not stored when the feature is edited. The workaround is to share with the Organization or to a group.

Workaround

Do not share the feature service with everyone. Create a group, and share the feature service with the group. Add users to this group.
