RTC / EWM: How do I get the current user name?

Hi,

having spent hours trying to make this work reading a lot of answers to similar questions also in this forum, I still cannot get it done. Mainly I am stuck on three points, and hopefully someone can point me in the right direction:

1) Main point: How do I get the current user name?

with
dojo.require("com.ibm.team.repository.web.client.session.Session");
[...]
loggedIn = com.ibm.team.repository.web.client.session.getAuthenticatedContributor().itemId;
I can successfully get the current user's ID. What I would like to get is the name (as one can see when selecting in a contributor field).

2) As I read it in different answer from years ago, at least back then it was not possible to return above itemId in a script used for a calculated field in order to alter a custom contributor attribute. Is this still the case? No chance to set a contributor field with a calculated value script?

3) Where can I find the reference/specification for above used get-Authenticated...-method? I do have the "Jazz Client API Specification" but that so it seams does not cover com.ibm.team.repository.web.*

Thanks in advance for your helpful comments!

regards
Franca
