How do I get the values of get_id() function into person/group field via REST? I know the syntax of the REST part has to be like:

'AssignedToId': {"results": (ID1, ID2,...)}

But how do I load the values into an array and pass this into {"results": ()} ?

var Id = get_id();
'AssignedToId': {"results": (Id)} 

or

'AssignedToId': Id

doesn’t work

EDIT:
Here’s the code

var hostweburl;
 var appweburl;
 var getId = new Array();

// Run your custom code when the DOM is ready.
$(document).ready(function () {


    initializePeoplePicker('peoplePickerDiv');


     //Get the decoded URLs
        hostweburl = GetUrlKeyValue("SPHostUrl");
        appweburl = GetUrlKeyValue("SPAppWebUrl");

        //resources are in URLs in the form:
        //web_url/layouts/15/resource
        var scriptbase = hostweburl + "/_layouts/15/";


        //load the js files and continue to the successHandler
        $.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.Runtime.js",
        function () {
            $.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.js",
                function () { $.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.RequestExecutor.js"); } 
            );
        }
    )

});

// Render and initialize the client-side People Picker.
function initializePeoplePicker(peoplePickerElementId) {

    // Create a schema to store picker properties, and set the properties.
    var schema = {};
    schema('PrincipalAccountType') = 'User,DL,SecGroup,SPGroup';
    schema('SearchPrincipalSource') = 15;
    schema('ResolvePrincipalSource') = 15;
    schema('AllowMultipleValues') = true;
    schema('MaximumEntitySuggestions') = 50;
    schema('Width') = '280px';
    this.SPClientPeoplePicker_InitStandaloneControlWrapper(peoplePickerElementId, null, schema);
}

// Query the picker for user information.
function getUserInfo() {

    // Get the people picker object from the page.
    var peoplePicker = this.SPClientPeoplePicker.SPClientPeoplePickerDict.peoplePickerDiv_TopSpan;

    // Get information about all users.
    var users = peoplePicker.GetAllUserInfo();
    var userInfo = '';
    for (var i = 0; i < users.length; i++) {
        // Get the user's ID by using the login name.
        $.when(getUserId(users(i).Key))
        .then(function (result) {
                console.log(result.get_id());
                getId = result.get_id();
        });

    }

   // Get user keys.
   var keys = peoplePicker.GetAllUserKeys();

}

//Function to prepare and issue the request to get SharePoint Data
    function execCrossDomainRequest() {


       var rest_data = JSON.stringify({
            '__metadata': { 'type': 'SP.Data.TicketsListItem' },
            'Title': $("#Title").val(), 
            'AssignedToId': { 'results': getId}, 
            'Issue_x002d_Status': $("#status").val(), //be sure to enter the INTERNAL column name!
            'Priorit_x00e4_t': $("#prio").val(), //be sure to enter the INTERNAL column name!
            'Kategorie': $("#kat").val() 
        });


        //executor: The RequestExecutor object
        //Initialize the RequestExecutor with the add-in web URL
        var executor = new SP.RequestExecutor(appweburl);


        // Issue the call against the add-in web.
        // To get the title using REST we can hit the endpoint:
        // appweburl/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('listname')/items
        // The response formats the data in the JSON format.
        // The functions successHandler and errorHandler attend the sucess and error events respectively
        executor.executeAsync({
            url: appweburl + "/_api/SP.AppContextSite(@target)/web/lists(guid'F1176C57-5AA4-4E73-9865-0EE5638FA682')/items?@target='" + hostweburl + "'", //use guid of list to make sure there are no errors
            method: "POST",
            body: rest_data,
            headers: {
                "Accept": "application/json; odata=verbose", "content-type": "application/json;odata=verbose", "X-RequestDigest": $("#__REQUESTDIGEST").val(),
            },
            success: successHandler,
            error: errorHandler
        });

    }
    //Function to handle the success event.
    function successHandler() {

    }

    // Function to handle the error event
    function errorHandler() {

    }

// Get the user ID.
function getUserId(loginName) {

    var deferred = $.Deferred();

    var context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
    var user = context.get_web().ensureUser(loginName);
    context.load(user);
    context.executeQueryAsync(
         Function.createDelegate(null,
            function () { deferred.resolve(user); }),
        Function.createDelegate(null,
            function (sender, args) { deferred.reject(sender, args); }));

    return deferred.promise();
};

EDIT2:

$.when(getUserId(users(i).Key)).then(function (result) {
                getId.push(result.get_id().toString());
                alert(getId); 
            });

alert(getId);

the alert is showing me the correct Id’s (from time to time in different order, but that shouldn’t be a problem). Nevertheless there’s nothing populated in my AssignedToId column. All the other columns getting filled.

var rest_data = JSON.stringify({
        '__metadata': { 'type': 'SP.Data.TicketsListItem' },
        'Title': $("#Title").val(),
        'AssignedToId': { "results": getId },
        'Issue_x002d_Status': $("#status").val(), //be sure to enter the INTERNAL column name!
        'Priority': $("#prio").val(), //be sure to enter the INTERNAL column name!
        'Category': $("#cat").val()
    });

    alert(rest_data);

the rest_data alert is giving me “…AssignedToId:{results: ()}..”

EDIT3:

So I’m typing in 3 users and the alerts of alert(getId); are

the alert of alert(rest_data); is
