add user api ignores admin true parameter in body

Wekan / Bugs · April 9, 2020 at 10:29pm

Create a board with an owner. Owner is a member with admin: true.

Add a member and as per api set action to add and isadmin to true. Added member is not an admin.

ie: that new member added does not get the icon permiiting archiving a board when you hover over the board.

If you look in mongo you see an array of the two users, under the key Members

The first item in that array is the one added to the board at board creation time as the owner and isadmin is set to true

The second member of the two element mongo array for that board is the added user and isadmin is set to false

in Both cases no comment and comment only and worker are all set as false

c) if member permissions never extend to members but only the owner for archive/delete functions that means that only the owner can remove a board.

    Though in many cases this may make sense, not being able to select this is more constraining then not getting PUT routines or webhooks for editing

      If you want me to test things LMK. Right now I have mongo routines that reset isAdmin and others that turn off allows statements to block edit functions that are not supported by webhooks.

        But I do not have a solution to not displaying icons for archive/delete or not overloading owner with atleast two users.

          I have all that working just fine, so I can externally rename boards and swimlanes, change colors of swimlanes at creation or after the fact, changing board permission and user permissions, etc. So all that is good.

                      I think only BoardAdmin can archive board, not Normal/CommentOnly/NoComments/Worker

                        Normally in Wekan web UI you can change each member to be BoardAdmin or some other permission
