Getting User name from project/[id]/people method...

Right now, if you get the project people, what is returned is: http://www.activecollab.com/docs/manuals/developers/api/project-people#project-people

How do you return the First and Last name? Or is it even possible? Right now, to get a user, you have to pass the company ID to the /people/ method...which in the above api call (projects/[id]/people) there is no way to get the user's profile information.

I am creating a drop-down list for assigning users to a task, in our app, but as far as I can tell, there's no way to get this information....only display the user ID

We already had this discussion in one of the previous topics. We'll see to make user details available with only user ID, but currently the only way to get to the user is to know user ID and company ID.

Doh. Sorry about the duplicate post, forgot about it previously. I was hoping it was just me and this method was unrelated to the previous post.

I suppose the work around is to get all the companies and their users and then match them up with the project users....but that might be a little too big of an API call for some sites.
