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

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

        If someone has Normal permission, and that user creates new board, that user is BoardAdmin of that board

                                I think BoardAdmin is at Boards collections, and Wekan Admin is at Users collection

                                  and with wekan/find.sh it's possible to search like ./find.sh isBoardAdmin

                                                anyway, I did test role API, and it did not set normal user to BoardAdmin
