Include avatar URL in Users API
0%
Description
I suggest including the avatar URL in the user's API.
{
"user": {
"id": 1,
"login": "admin",
"firstname": "Redmine",
"lastname": "Admin",
"created_on": "2006-07-19T17:12:21Z",
"updated_on": "2021-12-13T10:03:30Z",
"last_login_on": "2021-12-11T07:06:41Z",
"passwd_changed_on": null,
"avatar_url": "https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/982b6086063a22d85509455d8e31cca2"
}
}
Currently, it is difficult to display a user's Gravatar image when developing an application using the REST API. This is because Users API response doesn't include Gravatar URL. Although you can generate a Gravatar URL if you know the email address, email addresses are usually hidden for non-admin users.
This feature is very useful for developers who are building Redmine clients using REST API.

The patch should respect Setting.Setting.gravatar_default. Otherwise, the icon you see in Redmine and the icon you get by accessing the avatar_url returned by the API will be different.
