Export of test cases of a test plan

[fraggl]

Hello,
I would like to do the following:
1) Design a web page on which the user can select a project, a test plan in the project, an assigned to user and then export all these test cases to xml
2) Import xml into Excel and allow for "offline" test execution
3) Import test results back into TestLink.

Problem: The "assigned to" user should be an integer value. Where can I export the mapping of "user name" and "user id"?

Thanks for hints,

Volker

your topic is not regarding TL API

Sorry fman,
but it is about the TL API. It is about "getTestCasesForTestPlan", where the assigned user is exported as integer. I am searching for a way to export the mapping of user id to user name via API.

Initial post said nothing about getTestCasesForTestPlan() or other TL-API method.
