Expose `namespace_id` field for user APIs, when accessed by admin
This change will expose the additional namespace_id
field in the following
Users API response which returns user information, when executed by an admin (it does not expose namespace_id
when executed by a normal user):
GET /users
GET /users/:id
GET /user
PUT /users/:id
POST /users
The main driver for this is the Terraform GitLab
Provider
so that we can use the generic Create
Project
API endpoint with the namespace_id
field. E.g. something like that
because possible:
data "gitlab_user" "some_user" {
username = "timo"
}
resource "gitlab_project" "welcome_project" {
name = "welcome"
namespace_id = data.gitlab_user.some_user.namespace_id
}
Today, this is not reliably and conveniently possible. We'd have to use the Create Project for User endpoint. So, I guess this is merely a convenient field in the user details I think is worth exposing for a neat API usage experience.
