Is it possible to get group ID from search API?

[hanks]

Must-share information (formatted with Markdown):

• which versions are you using (SonarQube, Scanner, Plugin, and any relevant extension)
  Sonarqube Data Center Edition 10.0

• how is SonarQube deployed: zip, Docker, Helm
  Helm

• what are you trying to achieve
  Try to get group ID from search API, to be used in a community terraform provider for sonarqube, fix(group): fix broken code with deprecated group API by hanks · Pull Request #153 · jdamata/terraform-provider-sonarqube · GitHub, and now because there is no ID returned from the search API, can not implement the terraform import feature correctly, and if it is impossible, is there any other way to get the group ID?

Hey there.

As noted in the changelog for the Group related APIs…

POST api/user_groups/add_user

• 10.0 Parameter ‘id’ is removed. Use ‘name’ instead.

POST api/user_groups/update

• 10.0 Parameter ‘id’ is removed in favor of ‘currentName’

So it’s a matter of transitioning from ID to group name.

Thanks for the reply.

I see, but the API change is not friendly for the Terraform usage. terraform is based on resource ID for its implementation. if there is no way to get the group id, seems to be hard to implementation…
