Overseerr - Requested by user (Plex or local username) using null instead of user name

[vitorcsbrito]

Describe the bug When implementing a rule with the filtering by overseerr user username the firstValue used for comparison is "null" instead of the actual username making the rule always fail

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Request movie on overseerr

2. Implement rule like so:

   mediaType: MOVIES
   rules:
   - "0":
     - firstValue: Overseerr.addUser
       action: EQUALS
       customValue:
         type: text
         value: <username>

3. Test rule in collection viewer

4. Observe that result is false

   - plexId: <plexid>
   result: false
   sectionResults:
   - id: 0
     result: false
     ruleResults:
       - operator: OR
         action: equals
         firstValueName: Overseerr - Requested by user (Plex or local username)
         firstValue:
           - null
         secondValueName: text
         secondValue: <username>
         result: false

Expected behavior Rule should use actual username and provide correct filtering like so:

- plexId: <plexid>
  result: true
  sectionResults:
    - id: 0
      result: true
      ruleResults:
        - operator: OR
          action: equals
          firstValueName: Overseerr - Requested by user (Plex or local username)
          firstValue:
            - <username>
          secondValueName: text
          secondValue: <username>
          result: true

Running into the same issue in 2.0.3

I have the same sort of issue, instead the first value is coming back with my Admin account name.

Is this the initial rule in the first section? If so, it seems the issue isn't directly linked to the rule itself but rather to an error during rule creation. The very first rule shouldn't contain an operator, and if it does, it will cause the rule to malfunction.

If this is indeed the scenario, I recommend exporting your rule, removing the operator from the first rule of the first section, and then re-importing the rule. This should resolve the issue.

Edit: i pushed a fix for the above scenario in https://github.com/jorenn92/Maintainerr/pull/1070.
