As an admin, I want to be able to grant other users access to the admin UI #78

@dalekunce / @danbjoseph , 1) Is it sufficient to require the user being promoted to admin to have already logged in as a dashboard user or should this query the GO authentication platform to validate the user ID? 2) Does this need to assist the user, with a lookup, or will the user utilize a text field?

1 - i'm not sure i understand the options? 2 -imo, an assist would help, but at least a warning if you submit a name and it's not someone that exists in the system?

@danbjoseph question 1 is asking if it's ok that it may not be possible to set up a user as an admin until they have already logged into the app, because we won't have a record of them in our DB until they do. The only way around this would be if we could query the GO api to verify a username. From what I'm seeing this doesn't look possible, but I've emailed them to check. We just want to make sure this potential limitation is understood and considered acceptable.

only being able to promote a user that has created an account with the app and not being able to generate an admin seems like an acceptable limitation to me.

Agree with @danbjoseph no need to proactively make people admins before they have ever logged in.
