Wrong value in API

[notesjor]

I tried this: https://github.com/KorAP/Kustvakt/wiki/Service:-Virtual-Corpus-Creation

Example:

curl --request PUT "https://korap.ids-mannheim.de/api/v1.0/vc/~owid/test" --header "Authorization: Bearer XXX" --header "Content-Type: application/json" --data "{\"type\": \"PRIVATE\", \"corpusQuery\": \"corpusSigle=GOE & creationDate since 1820\"}"

Please replace the following information

• User: owid
• Virtual-Corpus-Name: test
• Bearer Token: XXX

Get this error: { "errors": [ [ 2010, "Unauthorized operation for user: MAIL", "MAIL" ] ] }

Problem: MAIL is the e-mail of user owid (I have replaced this info here with MAIL). I would expect the username here, not the email address. That's creepy. The problem: I need to specify the email for both creating and retrieving sub-corpus information.

As mentioned in https://github.com/KorAP/Kustvakt/issues/566, I do not have access to this info.

I see two solutions here:

1. use the user name here instead of e-mail.
2. more complicated - and ugly, with OAuth2, developers don't want to see any detailed information such as e-mail. modify the VC documentation (MAIL instead of username) and then send username and MAIL - see https://github.com/KorAP/Kustvakt/issues/566

Thanks for reporting the bug. That is really bad. The virtual corpus services have not been integrated in the Web-UI thus not tested very often. It used to show only username. This must have been caused by the synchronization of username and emails.

We have switched to using usernames instead of emails in aa87e202a2507716393c4386492b6464953a130f and d5fb949b331b5ea26e93b224b0d3d346a9574bab.
