How to match user ID and profile ID

English Forum Developers & API

We are considering using the API to externally back up data, including comments.

We have a problem.
When using the API to extract comments (Stories) that mention members, they are extracted as profile IDs rather than member IDs.
We want to know members by user IDs.
For that reason, we would like to know how to link profile IDs with user IDs.
We have checked the API documentation but cannot find the answer.

If you know, please let me know.

Finally, I apologize for my poor English, but I would appreciate your help.

Hi @市川_智一

The data-asana-gid portion of the returned tag is their User gid.

See Rich Text, especially this part:

Suppose a user with a name of "Tim" and a user GID of "53421" is @-mentioned. This will create a link to their "My Tasks" which is a project with a GID of "56789"
* The raw link generated in Asana will be https://app.asana.com/0/56789/list.
* The <a> tag returned in the API will be <a href="https://app.asana.com/0/56789/list" data-asana-accessible="true" data-asana-dynamic="true" data-asana-type="user" data-asana-gid="54321">@Tim</a>.
