Add Shared Projects

[ja2ui0]

Unless I'm missing something, projects are specific to the user. Therefore, multiple users managing a project would have to share a login to access the same contacts / segments / campaigns.

It would be useful for multiple users with their own credentials to be able to manage projects collaboratively.

Keila is already set up to allow this; projects are tied to an entity called "account" and not the user entity. We’re just missing a UI to manage the shared access to a project.

@ja2ui0: Would you be willing to help with this issue?

[ja2ui0]

@wmnnd: I'm not unwilling, it will take me time I don't have at the moment considering other commitments. I'm not a coder or a UI / UX designer, but when things settle down a little bit in a couple of weeks I might be able to have a look.

For now, how can we manually edit the database to enable 2 users to share a project, please?

[harryfear]

A row should be added to user_groups with the user_id (set as per the user to whom to delegate project access to) and the group_id (set as per the group_id of the Project in question in projects). The id, inserted_at and updated_at fields also need setting on insertion.

But that isn't enough; doing only the above causes the delegated user to encounter a 500 fatal issue after starting a campaign send-out:

14:05:47.979 [error] #PID<0.29160.0> running KeilaWeb.Endpoint (connection #PID<0.29159.0>, stream id 1) terminated

Request: GET /projects/np_XXXXXX/campaigns/nmc_YYYYYY/stats
** (exit) an exception was raised:
    ** (KeyError) key :id not found in: nil. If you are using the dot syntax, such as map.field, make sure the left-hand side of the dot is a map

@harryfear Do all the other routes work though?

[harryfear]

@wmnnd Yes, they do! It's just the on-send route and the stats routes that don't seem to work 😊

Would be amazing if this feature would become an actual thing one day - this actually kinda took me by surprise. 😇 Would already be helpful if those missing things under the hood would be implemented, as i could get around the missing frontend stuff (but perhaps other users won't). :)

I strongly support this. Would be happy to either have a UI or a supported way on the command line or db.
