Develop an API endpoint to retrieve a contact record by email with appropriate authentication and authorization.
Acceptance Criteria
The endpoint should be accessible at GET /api/v1/contact/email/:email.
The endpoint should accept HTTP GET requests.
The endpoint should be secured to ensure that only authenticated users with the SuperAdmin role can access the data.
Proper authentication mechanisms (e.g., JWT) should be implemented.
Requests to the endpoint must include a valid authentication token in the Authorization header.
Authorization: Bearer <token>
Response
On successful retrieval, the API should return a 200 OK status code and the requested contact record.
{
"status": "success",
"status_code": 200,
"message": "Contact record retrieved successfully",
"data": [{
"id": "uuid1",
"name": "John Doe",
"email": "johndoe@example.com",
"subject": "Inquiry",
"message": "I would like to know more about your services."
},
]
}
Unsuccessful Response:
If the token is invalid:
{
"status": "error",
"status_code": 401,
"message": "Token is invalid!"
}
Authorization Error Response:
{
"status": "error",
"status_code": 403,
"message": "role not authorized!"
}
Purpose
Provides a backend service that allows authorized users to retrieve a specific contact record by email.
Requirements
Develop server-side logic to handle retrieval of a contact record by email.
Ensure only users with the SuperAdmin role can access the contact record.
Implement proper error handling and status code responses.
Expected Outcome
API endpoint allows authorized users with the SuperAdmin role to retrieve a contact record by email.
Tasks
[ ] Create an endpoint GET /api/v1/contact/email/:email to retrieve a contact record by email.
[ ] Implement server-side logic to handle successful and failed retrieval requests.
[ ] Ensure the user has the proper role (SuperAdmin) to access the contact record.
[ ] Implement proper error handling for various scenarios (unauthorized access, invalid token, record not found, etc.).
[ ] Write integration tests for retrieving a contact record by email.
[ ] Perform security testing to ensure only authorized users can access the data.
Testing
Write integration tests for the end-to-end retrieval by email flow.
Test various scenarios:
Retrieving a contact record with a valid email and token.
Attempting to retrieve a record with an invalid or expired token.
Attempting to retrieve a record with insufficient authorization.
