Hi I am trying to get creator ID from workItem .
When i use the method
WorkItem.getCreator() I get the following message

com.ibm.team.repository.common.model.impl.ContributorHandleImpl@262b2
62b (stateId: <unset>, itemId: [UUID _noTKsbToEeCJhYt-X0WSYQ], origin: com.ibm.t
eam.repository.client.internal.TeamRepository@20772077, immutable: true)

Please suggest me how i can pull the creator name or email Address from the work Item.

Any suggestions are welcome

Thanks
Kishan

you need to convert the handle into a IContributor object

IContributor User = (IContributor) teamRepository.itemManager().fetchCompleteItem(
IContributorHandle, IItemManager.DEFAULT. monitor);

print user.getName();

Thanks Sam, it worked for me too. I fixed punctuation a little ;)

IContributorHandle creator = attachment.getCreator();
IProgressMonitor monitor = new SysoutProgressMonitor();
IContributor user = (IContributor) teamRepository.itemManager()
        .fetchCompleteItem(creator, IItemManager.DEFAULT, monitor);
logger.info("WorkItem attachment creator: " + user.getName());

It's all about the answers!
