Setting creator upon work item creation per OSLC

Hi Team,

using a script to programmatically create work items we would like to set the creator to a certain user instead of the logged in user under which the script is running.
How is this possible when creating work items with OSCL? What is the correct syntax?

Best,
Arne

If I were to guess, I would say you need to use:

<dcterms:creator rdf:resource="https://localhost:9443/jazz/oslc/users/_yo_KdpHJEeCxkrdeiPeBbw"/>


This seems to open another can of worms though because I'm not sure how you find out the unique identifier associated with a particular user. You must be able to query a user and request their URL identifier as a display parameter, but I'm not sure what the syntax would be for that. I'm researching the topic right now.
