config option to enable GDPR compliant API #236

Open dimitryvolkov opened 4 years ago

dimitryvolkov commented 4 years ago

As we know, Atlassian is in the process of changing and deprecating some API behavior to better comply with GDPR, they started by removing personal user data and adding accountIds instead. Some APIs still return old user data but we can't know for sure when APIs will be completely changed. Luckily, Atlassian has provided us with a way to test these changes and prepare.

This can be done by sending an HTTP header alongside requests (see here), which this PR enables.

You can read here for other changes being performed, although it seems the announcement is pretty old

Can you add a description of this function to README?
