Labcaches: List names of Adventures too

At https://project-gc.com/Profile/LabList just the names of Lab-Stages are listed. For a better overview and to differentiate duplicates (I already found 5 Stages called "Altes Rathaus" of different Adventures) please also list the Adventures' names.

The information isn't available in the API and it's therefor impossible for Project-GC to list it. This request needs to be direct at Geocaching HQ as they need to include the information in the API.

What API-call exactely are you talking off? Of course the adventures name is available within certain API-calls, otherwise GSAK-Macros or c:geo wouldn't be able to get them.

Could be that it has changed recently, I made this suggestion when the list was added and got the answer that it wasn't possible due to the information available in the API.

It's irrelevant what c:geo can fetch since they don't use the API but instead scrape the web pages without permission.

IMHO c:ego uses the API for labs, and your statement "without permission" is also questioning, cause as far as I know they are in contact with Groundspeak regarding Labs.

So the remaining question keeps: What API-call is PGC using which only delivers Stagenames but not Adventure-names? And would it be possible to include Adventure-names, since API has changed since this feature got introduced by PGC.
