Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Chris Hyzer <>]

I think the correct behavior is to append to the default set like 2.2 does.  Is that ok?  J

Subject: [grouper-users] ws.subject.result.detail.attribute.names vs. requested subjectAttributeNames

 

When my WS request specifies the subjectAttributeNames and sets includeSubjectDetail to true as done here:

<WsRestGetMembersRequest>
  <wsGroupLookups>
   <WsGroupLookup>
    <groupName>some:group:here</groupName>
   </WsGroupLookup>
  </wsGroupLookups>

  <includeSubjectDetail>T</includeSubjectDetail>
  <subjectAttributeNames>
    <string>uid</string>
  </subjectAttributeNames>

  <memberFilter>all</memberFilter>
 </WsRestGetMembersRequest>,

is the response supposed to include just the attributes I specified in the request or is it supposed to also include the attributes specified in grouper-ws.base.properties:

# subject result attribute names when extended data is requested (comma separated)
# default is name, description
# note, these will be in addition to ws.subject.result.attribute.names
ws.subject.result.detail.attribute.names =

I noticed a change in behavior from 2.1.5 to 2.2.1.  When includeSubjectDetails is true as in the above request, the 2.1 response only includes the uid I specified in the request, whereas the 2.2 response includes the uid, name, and description.  Which is the correct behavior?
