    How to find the name of the writer based on Entity WriterId

    I'm currently using ContentService Events to detect when a writer sends a content item for approval.

    I'm able to reference the writers id with the following code with the help of Entities.

     var mwriter = e.Entity.WriterId;

    But how do we also get the full name of the writer?

    Solved my issues by using Umbraco's ApplicationContext Class. The following helped:

    var mwriter = e.Entity.WriterId;
var mwriterprofile = ApplicationContext.Current.Services.UserService.GetProfileById(mwriter).Name;
